marathan museum run

yesterday my research team and i went to the colored cowboy museum here in fort worth. when we arrived the owner told us it was his birthday and that he had to give us a short version so he could get to his party.  he was incredibly nice and the 7 minute tour was great.  the museum featured native American, African American, Hispanic and Asian cowboys through the years.  he was telling us about how they plan to expand next year too.  he then invited us to his birthday party/ mixer at the fancy hotel downtown.  we were reluctant to attend but agreed to follow him so we could see the museum near by.  he thought it closed at 6 but as it would have it it closed at 5 so we had 5 minutes to view the exhibits. the paintings (i regret to say i didn't get the artist names we were so rushed) we of cowboys and native Americans.  you could feel the fire from the paintings and the cold harsh snow in others.  i was grateful to get to see them.  after the museum closed we went to his birthday party and met the city commissioner of fort worth. he was very nice and was telling us about how he wanted to move the archives to a more accessible location.  i hope your day was as eventful as my 30 minutes was!  after we left the party we went to a fort worth tradition t.j. Garcia's for dinner the food was excellent even though they only have 2 menu items.  the mariachi band was great and the gardens were amazing i highly recommend it!.
