Ft. Worth area question of gardenign topic

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Anyone know anything about where the Red Bull/Nike Girls Soccer tournaments are played over in the Ft. Worth area?
I'm leaving here Thursday morning wtih a bus with the team from one of our high schools and going to Ft. Worth the trip sheet says.
I'm still waiting to hear back from the coach as to the where abouts of it all and the motel we will stay in so I can kinda map things out and know where I am going but I though I would pop in and see if any one in that area knew anything to get a head start on my directions and find out what is around there that I can do or see when not driving them to the fields since we will be over there till sometime Saturday

so if ya see a bus that says Tyler ISD on it it's ME LOL

another interesting place you could investigate is the Heard Museum. Kinda medium/small nice and has a nature walk area;

Doan's Nursery is kinda fun to wander through;

Main street in Grapevine is nice, especially the train depot... there is a shop with a guy who makes bronze statues There is a nice little botanical garden in Grapevine on Wall street but I am not sure what it looks like this time of year. I live close to the stadium if you want to come over. D mail me.

sorry. I wasn't sure which w/e you were talking about. Keep warm!

(Phyllis) Flint,, TX(Zone 7b)

Well the coach told me today after the last game at Nolan they are going back to Colleyville in 2 wks and said he would like me to drive again and we are staying at the same holiday inn just off of 121 in Hurst ......so maybe I can give you a holler just before if I get the trip again.
