Grapevine, Texas

We are now in a new campground and it is amazing. It has trees and a lake. It is set up alot like Nacimento Lake. Wish we had our boat - they don't rent boats on this lake you have to provide your own. You can rent kayaks. I am in the midst of taking pictures and will add them later.
Ducks waddle up to our campsite - not a bit afraid.

The town of Grapevine has wineries and the cutest shops - the town has restored it's buildings so makes for fun shopping. They even have a frozen yogart shop - it is the first one since we left home. It's actually very much like Yogartland - it's called Cassie's. They have my favorite flavors - so I was very happy.

Dick is going Bass fishing with a guide on Thursday so he is looking forward to that. He has been to Bass Pro Shop here and picked up his fishing reel (Father's Day Present). Cali and Dick went to the most amazing Sports Complex at Oak Grove Park - he took me there last night and it was truly amazing. The parks in this city are beautiful. Hope my pictures will do the town, park and lakes justice. We are hoping to get in a game of golf here - hoping it will be a better game than I golfed in Arlington on Sunday.

White Lake Rock Park

Then we drove to White Lake Rock Park and had lunch - we stopped a "Big Daddy's" and got Dick and Cali a hamburger while I enjoyed a not healthy lunch of fried dill pickles and sweet potato fries - it was great. It is a big park with bike trials and the lake is good size and there were sail boats on the lake but we didn't see any skiboats. There were beautiful big homes across from the Lake. Then Dick let me go to "SouthFork" not as exciting as I thought it would be but it was good.

Dallas Heritage Village

this was a great find for us - it was uncrowded so we could take Cali on a walk as we explored. They have been moving buildings from cities all over Texas to make this village. It has a doctor offices, school, church, different types of housing, general store, saloon, farm house, bank, printing office, railroad depot. They have tried to put artifacts in each of the buildings.

It is close to the Dallas Farmer's Market which looked lots of fun but we couldn't go as we had Cali with us.

Downtown Dallas

These are the pictures from the depository - sixth window corner right side of the building.

Today we took a drive into Downtown Dallas and went to the Depository. It was very interesting. It make you wonder how they let anyone in any of the buildings along the route the President would take.
