Our lunch stop was here to eat at Hayden's Stockyard Eatery.
We opted out of the meal as yet again we were thrown "a limited menu". The choices were Pineapple Chicken Salad served in a half pineapple (pineapple and mayo together? Pass...), Shrimp & Grits (reviews said to pass this one by so I did and Himself won't touch grits) and then finally a Bourbon and Caramelized Onion Burger (I can't do onions and the tour leader would not ask them to do a plain burger! Seriously!!).
I had brought plenty of healthy munchies with us and that was quite satisfying. Instead, we looked around.
It really is a stockyard but there were no sales at the time.
The sale ring.
"Ol' Bossy"... cobbled together from 2x4 odds and ends.
We looked around the Farrier shop and had an interesting talk with the manager.
Lovely meat market, I wished I had brought a cooler!
But there were other things to be had... like that Cheddar Summer Sausage. Yummy!
And some jerky came came home with us too.
There was a small museum to enjoy.
And a fantastic learning center. School tours come out for programs.
This area was for hand-outs and samples.
And for the small area, it was full of educational displays.
Nope... we didn't miss missing lunch at all!
