Stockyards National Historic District

One of the places I wanted to see during the Texas trip last month was the Fort Worth Stockyards.

I had been there before, but it was at night and the visit was confined to Billy Bob's Texas honkytonk with the California Reagan Delegation in 1984.

There's plenty of things to see and do in the Stockyards district, including the new John Wayne: An American Experience exhibit.

From FortWorth.com:

Once home to cowboys, cattlemen and outlaws, today the Stockyards National Historic District is one of the most popular attractions in Texas. Day and night, visitors come to the Stockyards to get a taste of the true American West. Begin your journey on Exchange Avenue, where the weathered brick streets are lined with historic buildings, restaurants, shops, saloons and other attractions.

There's always something to see and do at the Stockyards and I recommend a visit.
