The stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas was once the largest livestock marketing center in the Southwest. Wranglers on horseback demonstrate a cattle drive down the center of town daily, as visitors watch. This was a place to experience true Western heritage. They have a real rodeo (during season), vintage 1896 train rides, live country music, cold beer at authentic saloons, and two-stepping in the world's largest honky tonk, Billy Bob's Texas. Andy and I once took a mini-class in two-stepping when we were in Nashville...neither one of us remember any steps, so we stayed clear of all honky tonks!
They have the cutest longhorns! This one steer in particular loved Andy and kept following him along the fence. Probably because Andy was scratching his horns. The rest of the steers were just sunning themselves and paid no attention to our presence.
