Day One

First day was a breeze. We left Cedar Park and headed North a little after Noon. The first place we stopped was the Texas Ranger Museum in Waco, Texas. Not a planned thing. We just saw a sign along the highway. Bob had read a book about the early history of the Rangers, and by the time he finished telling me about the book, I was pscyched to see the place.

Turned out to be pretty interesting. One thing I didn't know was that a lot of them made money on the side by surveying. Seems that while out on the frontier, they could pick up a few extra greenbacks by marking off property boundries and such.


After Waco, we headed North again to Dallas. Went up the Reunion Tower, which has a revolving top. Grabbed a quick snack there and watched Dallas slowly circle us.
