Great Western Adventure part 3

Ft. Worth and Dallas have a great train transit system linking the two cities. So instead of driving to downtown Dallas, trying to find parking, and fighting the crowd, we took the train to Dallas to go see Dealey Plaza. For some reason, I have always been interested in Kennedy and the assasination. So this was definitely on my list of things to do in Dallas.

The museum inside what used to be the book depository builiding is really incredible. The spot from where they think Oswald shot the rifle is preserved, there are hundreds of photos, graphics, memorabilia, and other items to look at. Of course the is no photography inside the museum. So we had to take several outside.

There are "X's" on the road to mark the spots where he was shot
