Fabulous Ft. Worth!
COWGIRL|December 2016

If you like boots with bling, cowgirl history and cattle in the city, then you might like a trip through Fort Worth, Texas.

Fabulous Ft. Worth!

There are lots of things to see, do and eat while in the city. A good time to visit is during the Fort Worth Stock Show, which is held annually between January and February. Keep reading to see what cowgirls shouldn’t miss in this Texas city big on Western heritage.

Located in North Central Texas along the historic Chisholm Trail, Fort Worth became a railroad stop when the Texas &

Pacific Railroad arrived in 1876, spurring promoters to build stockyards to help cement Forth Worth as a center for the cattle trade. When trail cowboys reached Fort Worth, they took advantage of civilization, buying provisions and reveling at saloons.

As a woman who spends long days, but not usually months, in the saddle, I can only imagine the excitement those cowboys would have taking advantage of their time in “civilization.” Today, travelers who may have endured a delayed flight or two can carouse on a more tame scale in the Stockyards Historic District.
