      Kamon, Martina & I took off for the Log Cabin Village one Sunday this month, not realizing they were on a 2 week vacation...so we pondered..."What to do!"...Didn't take long for us to have an afternoon of fun starting at the Fort Worth Water Gardens in the CBD...and then off to the Fort Worth Stock Yards, where neither Kamon or Martina had visited before...so it was a real treat to get to show them, especially the Longhorn Cattle drive down Main Street at 4PM...Unfortunately for me, I was so excited, I didn't notice I had my camera on the wrong settings, most of the day...and I didn't have my glasses with me at first, so I didn't notice...I did manage to save some of the pics...What a Fun Day!
