Trip Downtown

The last couple days we have been site seeing the big town of Dallas. We went and seen a beautiful Bronze sculpture of wild Mustangs that are larger than life size and are remarkable in detail. We also went to the spot John F. Kennedy was shot. They have built a memorial and put a museum of the assassination on the sixth floor of the book depository where Oswald supposedly shot the President. Their are allot of people who believe their were two shooters, one in the building and the other on the grassy knoll. Ashley's husbands grandfather was the lead investigator for the Dallas police department and he believes their was a man dressed as a police officer behind the wall on the grassy knoll.

There are fountains under their hooves

This picture gives an idea of their size.

There are allot of sky scrapers downtown.

This is the first cabin built in Dallas.

His first Santa picture.

OK we are having fun now.
We walked down to Ne mas Marcus so Ian could see Santa and their was quite a lineup to see him. The store was decorated beautifully for Christmas . After our site seeing we returned to Ashley's and Lynn and Ashley made us a delicious pork loin dinner. The weather was great today with full sunshine and 63 degrees. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice again. I don't think I mentioned gasoline here is $2.98. Here are a few pictures.
