Texas live!

We were fortunate enough to be able to share America's important day (Independence from England); fourth of July in a memorable way. Texas (a musical romance of panhandle history) performed  in a special 50th anniversary show. This musical is set in the outdoor amphitheatre in the Palo Duro Canyon and a better way to enjoy the show, cannot be imagined as you sit under a canopy of stars and the wonder of the canyon wall makes a natural back drop for the wild west. We were entertained with humour, song and dance as the history of the area unfolded before our eyes. Intermission saw a little comedy act as different groups from the audience were welcomed. Us Greenies won the award for the people who travelled the most distance to see the show. The gold plated dinner triangle presented to us was well earned for 15000 km trip. At finale the patriotic crowd stood proud as "The Star Spangled Banner" rang out and was followed by a spectacular display of fire works to celebrate the big event.







Much appreciated Greg and Rhonda for organising this for us. Cheers!
