bravest and finest of FW


the fort worth police and firefighters memorial. located few blocks west of downtown near montgomery plaza. (see previous posts of montgomery plaza and other firefighter memorial…)
quite serene and beautiful place to check out…the stories on the pathway leading to the statue are touching indeed. Oftentimes we see “support our troops” bumper stickers, but I strongly feel we should also “support our policemen/women and firefighters…”
Paws place

the holy symbol
for the canine lovers: Located 5-10 miles east of FW,North Richland Hills is home to an area dog park.: Tipps Canine Hollow Dog Park…
(There are some nice dog parks in FW proper as well…)

The Fort Worth water gardens in downtown…a little serene place where one can go to cool off in this scorching summer heat.
Holy night

Fort Worth United Methodist Church early evening
Another downtown icon…Fort Worth United Methodist Church. Absolutely serene.
Funkytown’s Mayfest

seen on bank of Trinity River north of FW
On drive to work recently, I saw this promo for Fort Worth’s mayfest. Painted in yellow on the banks of Trinity River just north of FW. You can see the Courthouse building in the background, and yet another sign of future growth (construction crane.) Mayfest is next week. We missed the other well-known Arts Festival last week. These two back to back events make Funkytown a happening place!!!
Montgomery’s new ward

"inside" the plaza
Check out the website for Montgomery Plaza, located 0.5 miles west of downtown Fort Worth. This picture was taken on a rainy day, but a great cool plaza with shops, residences, and eateries.
