Field Trip 2/8: Fort Worth Stockyards

 Here's the website with information about the Fort Worth Historic Stockyards: https://www.fortworthstockyards.org/  

There are shops, restaurants, museums, a petting zoo, a longhorn herd, horse stables, a maze and a twice-daily longhorn cattle drive through the streets.  It costs about $15 to park.  You also can walk through the actual stockyards where they held the sheep, goats and cattle in the 1890s before continuing on the Chisholm Trail.  Here is some history about the stockyards and a video:  https://www.fortworthstockyards.org/history  

This was a great, inexpensive field trip.
