Ranger/Rays 4th of July Baseball

Here are some shots from our mini vaction to the Dallas-Fort Worth area for the 4th of July. We attended the Texas Rangers - Tampa Bay Rays baseball game and fireworks show Saturday night.

I thought I would campare the old Texas Stadium to the new Cowboy's stadium while I had the chance.

It's hard to believe the Cowboys played in Texas Stadium just a little over six months ago. Everything associated with the Cowboys has been removed from the complex. The only thing that gives a hint the Cowboys once played in the facility is the color scheme and some painted stars on a couple of walls. If it could be removed, it has been, and there is no indication the Cowboys once called this home.

Meanwhile, the new stadium looks like a ufo and it makes "The Ballpark in Arlington" look small.

New Stadium Expansion Pictures - 7/1/2009

Nothing real exciting going on just before the holiday.

It does look like they have prepped the northeast corner for the arrival of the pre-cast concrete sections.They are continuing to work on the new temporary location for the Double-T Zone.

This will be the last set of pictures before the holiday weekend.
