Ft. Worth Stock Show

Because we’re here, and the Ft. Worth Stock Show is going on today, we headed there for the afternoon. I’ll share a bit of it with you now…and much, much more later. I really got a big kick out of a lot of the signage around the show. There’s lots of Texas pride here – […] Read more…
