Had a great sunrise this morning and actually managed breakfast abut 7.30 and headed out to the AT&T Stadium for the virtuals there. It was bitterly cold, about 5 C and a very strong, very cold wind blowing as well. First day that I had to put my coat on, way to cold not too!!!! Most of the car parks around the stadium had been roped off,but we managed to find an entrance here and there, so stayed warm while we could. We did venture out eventually but not for long lol.
Across the road was the Ballpark, and so used their car parks as well. Whilst there we had a message about an Easter Event happening in Southlake that afternoon and would we like to go. It is about 30 minutes north of where we were, so happily sent our agreements. We left the car park about 10 and headed a little further north and discovered where their Christmas event had been held, lots of nice jewel munzees around the place, but far too many to finish off in a limited time, so maybe back tomorrow. Headed off to fuzzy’s tacos in Southlake which was the meeting place at 1 and we didn’t find anyone there, lol, it’
s hard when you don’t really know who you are looking for. However, they started to arrive as they had been out the back in Bicentennial Park capping the new Easter munzees. After a quick lunch and a few chats we headed out. Blue skies and sunshine, but still that biting wind. Bicentennial Park is large with all sorts of areas for many different sports, baseball, inline hockey, tennis, basketball, outdoor stage, amphitheatre etc. Lots of grassed & picnic areas, lakes & fountains, it was lovely. We wandered around looking for the Easter munzees, the normal ones and also did Eventzee, the photograph scavenger hunt which we managed to get all 20 clues. Hard work trying to do the 2 things at once, easy to get carried away with one and forget the other, but we cleared up the lot! One of the clues was for a photo of a 1775 flag. Asked several of the others what it was and none of them knew! However, at one of the entrances is a display of the 6 flags that US has had, and the first, 1775 one had the Union Jack in the place the stars are today. Stopped for chats with others scanning codes along the way, met a very nice couple, she was originally from Adelaide but moved here with her US husband, they geocache more then munzee, but were enjoying it all as well. When finished we headed back to fuzzy’s to catch up and thank the organisers, for the invite and the great day. More chatting and then a recommendation for dinner at a Texas barbeque place, so headed off again, but not too far to the Feedstore BBQ. Ordered the meat (ribs for us) and then had a selection of sides which to choose from. I had beans and turnip greens, Maria had mashed potatoes (but not plain!) Then the sauces and other condiments. It was very tasty! Maria’s birthday dinner. Then back at the motel by 6.30, must be one of our earliest evenings yet!
