    My Trip Report

    Heading out tomorrow morning. Driver is picking me up and 7:00 then we head north for about 25 minutes to pick up my nephew.

    Flight is scheduled for 11:10am and we change planes in Dallas (Love Field) to arrive in Vegas around 2:30pm.

    Anyone know a good place in Love Field to grab a mixed drink?

    Awww now you’re in my hood (DFW). I can’t say where to get a drink unfortunately I haven’t flown out of Love since November. But I welcome you to North Texas, even if your stop is short. I probably know a guy who knows a guy who knows your nephew lol! ;) Safe travels can’t wait to follow your TR!
    Oh hell wait I saw you said 25 minute drive to Love—well howdy neighbor! Good luck! The eyes of Texas are upon you! <3​

    Sorry for the confusion. We fly out of Atlanta, change planes in Dallas. I've flown in to DFW airport many times to work in Fort Worth.

    Fort Worth is where I work. I’ll still give you my Texas blessing, even if you come out of state, you’re family. Good luck!! :)

    In 2001 I spent about 50 nights in FW, going there 12 nights at a time to help set up a new build production line at Elbit Systems of America. I can remember going to the Stockyards and eating at Risky's BBQ.

    DFW.....like 3:30 to and fro is
    a bad day. Golf is cheap and a stop going and coming could mean golf. But noooo, vegas calls.
    So. You must win. a BIG pot from the Jackson. And show the nephew a good time.
    And also, stop slapping the buttons on the sigma derby screaming 2-5!!!!!!!!!! 2-5!!!!!!!!! And then not really being that upset at losing as you bet of 0$. Wait, here comes the waitress;
    I love it but dont ruin it for the rest of us. :eek: :rolleyes: :beer: :poke:

    Yep Risky’s is a thing here. It’s not my favorite but it’s a Fort Worth icon. Any given day of the week you will see lawyers having drinks at lunch there— I work in the legal field and I left Dallas in 2005 and never looked back. Cowtown has my heart, for better or worse.
