Christmas Road Trip - Day 15

Day 15: Palo Pinto, TX - Memphis, TN After a rather leisurely morning at the ranch with a yummy breakfast of homemade waffles and bacon, we hit the dusty trail once again. We had many miles to cover - more than I had realized. We made a stop in Fort Worth, TX to see the Stockyards and a cattle drive. It was fun to how things were done in the old west. We toured around a bit and then Jackie did a stockyard maze while the rest of us gave her directions from above. She completed it in 22 minutes - not easy! It was one of the things contestants had to do on Amazing Race 5.



After the stockyards, it was on to Dallas. We took a quick detour to see Pioneer Plaza and the place where Kennedy was assassinated. There wasn't much to see but as a history buff, it was cool to drive the route.

And back on the road we went. Santa Barbara seems like another trip! We're so glad we did this road trip of road trips; however, we're all ready to get in our own beds! We're praying for one more day of safety and good attitudes. Tomorrow - home!
