The Amazing Race
by keeweechic
If you have ever seen the reality show ‘Amazing Race’, you will have seen the final episode of Amazing Race 5 where the contestants last stop was in Fort Worth. They had to find their way through the stockyards cattlepen maze several times to find keys and locks. They certainly didn’t have an easy time of it.
Wine and Romance

Speciality Wine...Strawberry Kiss.
I have already mentioned the Speciality Wines, made by Lightcatcher Winery, Ft. Worth Texas. This one makes me curious enough to definitely visit.
If anyone has tasted this Strawberry Kiss, perhaps you can let me know how sweet it was.. ;-)
Kimbell Art Falls
by Yaqui
You know never know what you may find in or around a museum. Well while just walking thru and along the sidewalk. I had not noticed right way the lovely falls or ponds right behind the museum. I was so taken in by the beauty and tranquility of it. So when you are visiting the Kimball art galleries takes a walk behind and enjoy the tranquility.
