On the Grassy Knoll

Another Day we went walking around downtown Dallas near the station where Scott is working. We walked a little way to find a great fun piece of art. Since I am sure you have picked up by now that we like to take in art and do our best to appreciate it we had to get up close and personal with this one. Chance had a good time posing for pictures at this one.

Just a few blocks from the station is a place I totally forgot was even here until Scott reminded me. Below you can see Scott and Chance in front of the old book depository. I love these shots of the two of them walking away, in these pics Chance look so much like a little Scott.

We walked all around the JFK memorial and then crossed the road to the grassy knoll. That's me and Chance below on the Knoll. By this time Chance had decided he was no longer in the mood for photos and so is running to get out of this one. He has become moody like that recently but from everything I read it is typical of a three year old so we just keep telling ourselves it's a phase and trying to keep some control while letting him learn to be his own person. It's easier said than done some days.

This was a fun thing to do, I am very happy we got to see these downtown locations and a little piece of history. I had no idea Dallas was so large or had so many great locations to visit. We didn't have a ton of money to spend or lots of time but there are all kinds of museums all over Dallas and a Zoo and world class Aquarium, I had no idea until we spent this weekend here. A little trip like this is exactly why I love to travel, I learned so much about Dallas that I never knew before and got to experience the city in a way you just can't do from an armchair. When we get the opportunity to travel along with Scott it's great because not only do we get to see him but we get to hang out in locations that we would never choose to go to otherwise.
