[Qcwa] Dallas - Day 3 & 4 ( State Fair & The Grassy Noll)

Gee, I miss WhatABurger!

Glad you're having a good time!

It used to be, if you drove up Preston Road towards US 121 (not a
bad drive on a weekend, can be nasty during rush hour) there was a
ranch along the way that had Longhorn Cattle. I don't know if they're
still there. I've been gone for about 4 years.

Have fun!
