Back to Cowtown

As with all visitors, I end up at the Fort Worth Stockyards (I love it there, so you don't have to twist my arm!), so my Mom visiting was no different.

Here is my Mom standing right where the longhorns head out of their holding area to do the cattle drive each day. You can imagine how fabulous it smelled right there. :)

NEED MORE COWBELL!! I just love when those cute longhorns wear a cowbell 'necklace'!!


How 'bout them cow butts?!

Here's a mounted Fort Worth cop - they look so good in their uniform on those pretty horses. BTW - that cop's horse is named Justin and he is a retired ranch horse. We even got to pet him, even though he was 'on duty'!

And just to keep tradition alive, I had my Mom pose for the same Feed Bin photo op that I did when Claire was in town. She was such a good sport!

Here is my Mom 'in her element' - shopping in gift shops!!
