About Tarrant County, TX

This is one of the coolest places I know in North Texas. I came to know this place because they had contacted me about building a wine storage building for them with ICF technology. Like a cave, only above ground.

Anyway, they have really cool events all the time and the one for tomorrow, Sunday, November 15th is their jazz Sunday. Its going on from 4 - 7 PM.

If you live in North Texas, you have to check this place out. It reminds me a bit of the hill country. You'll like Caris and Terry and what they have going on there.

If you want more information on the winery and all their events, you can check them out here:

If you go, tell them you heard about here on AR from me. They may not remember me, but I sure remember their operation. And if you do go, please send us a report card here.

If you are looking for someplace special to take your other or your clients, this is it. An experience you'll remember.
