Money, Cows and Water
... So everything moved along fast and smooth. We were there for maybe an hour and half. From there we headed over to the Fort Worth Stockyards. Finding a place to park was confusing. There are lots with marked spaces and at each entrance is a slotted box to ...
Dallas / Fort Worth
De afgelopen dagen heb ik in Dallas / Fort Worth (DFW) doorgebracht. Ik ben daar op bezoek geweest bij Thomas en Stef. Tot mijn grote verrassing was Solvei (moeder van Thomas en Stef) ook al in DFW. Zij zou oorspronkelijk een week later komen omdat haar ...
Change of Plans
We made it Texas last night. As we arrived here we found out that Charlie's Aunt Gladys has passed away. We are so thankful for our time with her last weekend and for the many memories we have shared with her. We do want to be with our family at this ...
France Again!
You'll never believe what happened! We're going back to France for a month with the Rutledges! I didn't think I would ever go back to Europe again. I can't wait! The problem is that my family is selling our house in Texas the same day we leave. We leave ...
Ride it Cowboy!
We got up early (again!) to drive towards the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolis. Traffic around Dallas was mental! There were so many roads going off in all directions and people were driving at all speeds changing lanes rapidly before indicating or not at ...
Home Sweet Home
Today we arrived at DFW at 2:45 p.m. It was a ten hour flight, and I'm a little tired. Mrs. Ryan picked us up from the airport. She was really nice and funny. We had fried chicken and ice cream for dinner. It's so good to be home ...
A motel somewhere.....nowhere
... hassle, cos it was cool! Fort Worth itself wasn´t much, a few bars and restaurants and a useless tourist info. But Fort Worth Stockyards National Hostoric District was way cool! Cowboys mania! Shops selling everything cowboy, guys riding horses and cows ...
Bruiloft Thomas en Emily
Op donderdag 9 november ben ik vanuit Panama City naar DALLAS FORT WORTH (DFW) gevlogen om daar Thomas en Emily te verrassen op hun bruiloft. De vliegtickets had ik enkele weken eerder geboekt via het internet. Hierbij had ik echter een fout gemaakt door ...
Day 2: We're not in Kansas Anymore... or Oklahoma.
... things went smoothly until we made it to Fort Worth. Fort Worth is like... well, its kind of how you would imagine a town called "Fort Worth" to be -- kind of like a fort, but still worth something? Anyway, we stayed at the Hotel Texas, which was a ...
On the Road Home
... see Aunt Dorothy. She invited us for lunch and we had a real nice visit. We were on the road again about 2PM headed for Fort Worth. 287 is a long road in anything. The prius was real comfortable and Averaged ...

New Orleans to Dallas
Check out of St Vincent's Guest House and taxi to the airport, then caught the Alamo Shuttle to pick up my car from Alamo car Rentals as it wasn't in the airport. Check in and got my little car which I had the choice of three cars to choose from so I ...
The Big Rig
So hungover, struggling to walk, holly was not impressed, I was barely with it but my ability to recognise this kept everything going. The Taxi arrived right on time at 5am and took us straight to the airport. We continued on our way back to Dallas. When ...
Cow Town
... self. Beside the tracks stand the relics of the former meat packing plants that had once been so important. The Fort Worth longhorn herd resides in the stockade now, waiting amiably for the twice daily 'rampage' through town. It is ...
Down in Louisana about a mile from Texarkana
After waking up in Bama, we hit the road at 6:30 am and covered four states... Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana (country's worst roads), and made it to the Wadley home at about 8:00 pm. We were greeted with a cold beer and cool Gazpacho ...

Busy town!
... travel guides and it was well worth the trip into town! The next day, before we went to the concert we headed back into Fort Worth for the annual Main Street Arts Festival. It was literally one of the biggest art fairs that we have ever seen, it ...
Topophilia, Fort Worth.
... to the point, Jenny in that skirt thing, did it for me. Big time. I couldn't stop thinking about Jenny when I visited the Fort Worth Water Gardens. Being sixteen years old may have had something to do with it. From that moment of standing and "just being" ...
Austin
... riding was exiting but I felt sorry for the bulls... I myself wouldn't want heavy cowboys on my back! We spent the night in Fort Worth in a motel 6. The next day we went to a Waffle house for breakfast. "Fett och grisigt," as Nick would have said! But ...
4 states in a Day
... we were planning on camping and a prediction for hail the size of quarters (50c pieces to the Kiwis). So, we turned and ran to Fort Worth, Texas and another night in an extended stay hotel. It has worked out well, all the laundry done, showers had by all ...
Packing blues
How on Earth did all of this stuff come out of our tiny apartment? I keep packing and packing and throwing things away (at least enough to feed to eleven goats, if they were hungry) and giving things away (at least enough to build a small seafaring ...
We're really leaving
So, we've said goodbye to everyone, but I still don't feel like this is real. I'm nervous and still feel like I'm not ready to go (probably because I still have 8 things to do before we can get on the plane). Anyway, this has got to be quick, but I ...
A New Beginning
We just found out we're going to Paraguay! We're so excited. I'm a little nervous too, and I have lots to do to get ready. I haven't even started to realize how much I'm going to miss everyone. I've been doing lots of research to find out what we're ...
Trains broke
Arrrghhh, something happened to the train and we had to get off at Fort Worth, not far from Dallas and get a bus from Fort Worth to Austin. Surprisingly the bus was late for around 2 hours so I went for a walk around Fort Worth, looks a really nice ...
Cowboy Town!
... job I didn’t pay that extra money as the sign at Union Station said my day pass covered my ride on both types of transit; Fort Worth is approximately thirty miles from Dallas, so I did expect to pay more than $4 to get there, but the sign seemed to ...
