El Paso Trip-Day 3

Monday was the last day we had everyone together.  We started off with a tour of a pistachio farm.
It was fabulous and our tour guide did an amazing job of answering our many questions.
It was very interesting to see the process of sorting, roasting and salting the pistachios.  It takes a lot of time and effort and helped us realize why they are an expensive.  We did some sampling while there.  Yum.
We stopped again at a side of the road chili store and then headed back to Texas.
Cattleman's Steakhouse is a restaurant out in the middle of nowhere, but definitely worth visiting.
Before dinner we toured the grounds.  There is a large variety of animals such as: ostrich, bunnies, goats, sheep, longhorns, buffalo and horses.  They kids all had a chance to fee the goats and loved it.
The kids loved the park.  We had to pull them away to get our dinner and then they rushed back with Uncle Evan to keep playing until it got too dark.
It was then time to head back to El Paso, as most of the group was headed back for work early Tuesday morning.
