The Rodeo and Stock Show are in town and today is the last day for the Stock Show. We head out to the fairgrounds so Gary can see the Longhorn Cattle.
We get there and it is free for Seniors today so we are less upset when we find out the livestock auction was yesterday so the cattle and horses are gone.
We go into one of the display barns
There were some pigs left
and western themed displays
We see some people streaming into another barn so we venture in. There is a livestock judging competition going on so we aren't allowed to stay and watch.
This all makes Gary very grumpy so he goes to the time-out bench.
Be grumpy no more! We find a couple of Longhorn Cattle
This guy likes to get his ears scratched.
His horns measure 6' tip to tip!
I knew that - said the wise old owl!
I thought the price of admission was worth it just to see the sand sculptures
There is a carnival going on as well
Apparently the greatest one on earth.
But we've had enough and we are getting hungry - just not hungry enough for a $10 hot dog with a $13 beer.
Tomorrow we head to Padre Island National Seashore
