Texas

by

Where Do Texans Play?

(See other Durango, Colorado articles this issue.)

Since Colorado, New Mexico, and Louisiana border us, it is no surprise that they get over 60% of their tourist from the b-i-g state of Texas.  Colorado and New Mexico get the ski crowd in the winter, and in the summer the fly fishermen head to Colorado or New Mexico, along with families who just want a cooler climate (at least in much of Colorado). 

Durango, Colorado

The Bar D is one place you will never be disappointed in your visit.  Prepare for a 2 1/2 hour time of dining on chuck wagon food and delightful entertainment!   Steaks can be ordered for an additional cost, and from the conversations around me the people who ordered them were more than happy with their meals. 

Waiting for the food and entertainment to start!

 

The fellow in the yellow shirt is the one who owns Bar D and started it all!  Cy Scarborough plays rhythm guitar and does comedy. You will never forget this gifted and talented man once you witness his energy and personality! You won't be there long before you realize Cy is "what makes it all work!"

The Bar D Wranglers provide the music and these gentlemen have a lot of award winning music history behind them.

Cars starting to fill the parking lot as they do night after night right up until Labor Day.

Every other night the entertainment program alternates.

This is one Editor's Choice I am very proud to list as Excellent in price,

and quality in every way!
