Day Trip to Uvalde ✈️ (FULL EPISODE) S10 E7

Out west of San Antonio, this town is rich in Texas heritage. It's a wild town sitting where the Hill Country meets West Texas and South Texas, giving it a feel that is uniquely Uvalde.
John Nance Garner was Speaker of the US House and Vice President under FDR. Dolph Briscoe was the Governor of Texas. Both were Texan, both were bigger than life and you can learn about both of them here at this museum in Garner’s old home.
You can find pieces of Governor Briscoe’s extravagant art collection in the strangest place - at the First State Bank of Uvalde. Part bank, part museum, you can take a tour of the incredible art pieces that include Remington and Rembrandt original paintings.
Don’t let the outer exterior of this small, wooden shack scare you away. Inside is truly authentic Mexican cuisine and some of the best gorditas in South Texas. Made from scratch, these doughy pockets are filled with tasty goodies. If you’re brave, try the mollejas gordita (cow thyroid glands).
You don’t have to be a pilot to enjoy this airport cafe. Once an active military training facility, Garner Field Airport now hosts a small diner where you can watch planes take off over a beer and a burger. It’s the perfect food to fuel your adventure - literally! Pilots can get the $100 Burger deal, with their choice of any burger and $100 worth of jet fuel.
Towering bluffs. Crystal clear water. Pebble beaches. What more could you need on a hot afternoon? It’s crowded in the summer and secluded in the winter, but either way it’s the ideal oasis in the middle of all that West Texas scrub.
The Ox Ranch is your one-stop-shop for going completely WILD - whether you want to hunt for exotic animals or you’re looking to shoot something with a little more FIRE POWER. This may be the only place that you can drive and shoot old army tanks, including what’s regarded as the “Best Sherman left in the world.” It’s insanely awesome!

    No, its more like... sadly that the focus is on swaying opinions or focusing on negative energy, rather than supporting your community to stop gunmen before the 911 call and before waiting for cops to save the day. The focus should always be on children before the massacre, not making a comment a year after.

    Dallas doesn’t have a negative affect because of a shooting, it’s too big of a city to carry that. As far as Waco, only outsiders think of that negative affect. Waco has grown and has plenty to offer

    @@Zeeangelofdeath Dallas spent the better part of the 60s, shaking that…”That's the city where Kennedy was killed..” mindset (I was a child there in the late through the mid-70s), Waco did as well, though Branch Davidian nightmare was short-lived in the memories of the public.

On that note, does anyone here know when the strawberry cactus fruits come into season? 🙏We found a bunch covered and loaded with immature fruit.

    Mollejas, also known as thymus gland or sweetbreads. Additionally, the pancreas of a cow, goat, pig or lamb. The dish is available in the menu of the most high-end French restaurants globally. Milk-marinated and then boiled, ready for pan, broiler, or grill. They were eaten by Ferris Bueller during his time as the SAUSAGE KING OF CHICAGO.
