Cowboys and Christmas Lights

Our last full day in the Dallas area was spent mostly spent in a tour of the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, TX, home of the Dallas Cowboys.  We're certainly not the biggest football fans, but there is no doubt that the stadium is impressive and we are including a whole bunch of photos here to give you some idea of what we saw.  Our tour guide, Bob, made the whole thing so much more interesting by providing all sorts of facts and stories about the building of the structure.  For instance, the construction started as one huge hole since the actual playing surface is located about 50 feet below street level and the area immediately surrounding the field is large enough to easily accomodate tractor-trailers.

On our trip from Sanger, TX, toward the San Antonio area, we stayed for two nights at a place called the Hofbrau RV Park in Marble Falls, TX.  Thanx to recommendations by our host, we enjoyed an outstanding meal at the Blue Bonnet
Cafe in town and then had a nice walk along the river through a display of Christmas lights which are also shown in the photos.

We are now in Boerne which is just 30 miles or so from the Alamo which will be one of the subjects of our next blog entry.
