Road trip to Washington--First stop--Frontier Texas in Abilene Texas

This longhorn has horns longer than my 2 girls.

The military gave us 6 days to make the cross country trip but we took it slow and made it in 9.=) We mapped out our route fitting in as many National Parks with Junior Ranger programs as we could so the kids could get their Junior Ranger badges and patches from each stop. The first few days were just extra fun stops.

Our first stop was a fun museum in Abilene, Texas called Frontier Texas (not a National Park). It has holographic people telling the story of how the cowboys evolved over the years. Lots of lifesize displays made this fun for the kids too.

This is Calvin checking out the rattlesnake hole. It made a rattler noise every so often.

Check him out up close.

Teepees are always fun.

This is one of the holographic people telling her story.

Anyone else need a ride?

Now, 4 more hours of driving to find another hotel.
