Bill and Alicia head to Dallas on their first "road trip" and come back engaged!

Fort Worth Stockyards

Billy Bob's, Booger Red's, the White Elephant, Cattleman's Steak House and an olde-time photo!

Southfork Ranch

A day of shopping at the Galleria, then Southfork Ranch and dinner at Chez Girard (where they tried to pull a fast one and bring a '91 St. Emilion instead of the '90 on the wine list. I called them on it and they went back and "discovered" a '90 left on the shelf. Just an innocent mistake - yeah, right!)

Dallas Cowboys vs
Arizona Cardinals

We got engaged! Bill had a plane fly over Texas Stadium during the Cowboys / Cardinals game with the banner: ALICIA - WILL YOU MARRY ME? - BILL


Ozzy Osbourne at Starplex

Don't have any photos from OzzFest, but just imagine a Halloween party at an insane asylum gone wrong and you're close!

Texas State Fair

Pat Boone was right. The Texas State Fair is the BEST state fair!

Miss Saigon

8 years before this Broadway play made it to the Luther Carson Performing Arts Center in Paducah, we saw it at the Fair Park Music Hall.


Reunion Tower and West End

We started the day by having lunch in the revolving restaurant at the top of Reunion Tower. Then we went to the West End and stopped by Hard Rock and Planet Hollywood. (Notice I have Alicia wearing a Red Wings shirt for the game tonight)!

Dallas Stars vs
Detroit Red Wings

My two favorite hockey teams! Alicia wanted to know why the puck wasn't lit up like it was on TV so she could see it!

Dickey's Barbecue

I had to show Alicia what TEXAS BARBECUE was like, so we stopped by Dickey's on the way out of town.
