Used to cost 2.50 to $5.00meals included to stay the night there in the 1800s.
An unheard of price when everyone else was charging 50 cents to a dollar meals included. The pace was alost tiorne down at one time and was saved at the very last minut. You can read more here is you wish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Driskill_Hotel#History The big building with the pointed tops is the Frost Bank Tower. I have been to the top out on the roof with the points. Was also the project superintendent for the fire alarm system when it was built. Worth |

We have four new babies in the cow field. The mothers make them lay down and stay on a pile of old hay while they graze. It's baby cow day care:

Sounds like a successful year for breeding program. Newborns, and really any calves are my favorites.. They look like happy campers Cole.
