Dallas!

Hank and I went to Texas this weekend. Ricky and Anna were thinking of places to go that neither of us have been to. Anna suggested that we head out to SouthFork Ranch and check out the actual house that was used for the show Dallas. It was awesome! Do you have the theme music in your head yet? If not, ask Anna and she will sing/hum it for you! :-)

They only filmed the outside parts of the show at the house, and I guess the inside shots were done at a studio in California. But still, it was awesome to know that we were actually there! We had a great time! Thanks Ricky, Anna, and Hannah for taking us!

This is the entry gate that was used in the show. I think they said they would put dirt on the driveway so when they drove down it during the show dust would fly up from the cars.


Here is the SouthFork Ranch Emblem:



Here is Hank by the actual 1978 Lincoln Continental Jock Ewing used in the series:



Here is Hank and I in front of the Ewing Mansion that was filmed on the show.


Here is Ricky and Anna (Elizabeth's Brother and Sister-in-Law) on the balcony:



Here we are inside the family room:



And of course the gun the shot JR!
