Dallas, TX

I got delayed on my trip by a blown starter in Baton Rouge, so i beelined it for Dallas, leaving the bayou for the rolling hills and ranches of Texas. I headed to downtown Dallas, checking out the site of the JFK assassination at Dealey Plaza and then continued through the historical area. It was a hot one, 98 degrees at 5pm! Then I headed out to Arlington to watch the Texas Rangers take on the Los Angeles Angels. The Rangers looked pretty bad early in the game, but then they were able to break out in the 7th for the win Rangers 10 - Angels 5
