I haven't always been a huge history or museum buff...but I really enjoyed our stop at Ft. Davis. They have done a remarkable job of restoring parts of it and just preserving the rest. For info. about the site, check here: http://www.nps.gov/foda/index.htm
Off we go to explore...
Finally! A sign that says "permitted" not "prohibited!"However, the dogs are not so lucky and get left in the car
