Arlington

Today, while in Arlington I got a little closer to my goal of eating at every one of Babe’s Chicken Dinner House restaurants, not something I’m real proud of goal wise but they do usually have pretty good food. According to their website I have two left. http://www.babeschicken.com/Babes-Chicken-Dinner-House-Arlington.html

I was not in Arlington for Babe’s, it just happened be located near my intended destination, The Knapp Heritage Park, which I found to only be open Saturdays 10-2 or by appointment. Luckily the park is surrounded by a wrought iron fence so the structures are easy to see. The buildings are in really good shape, I hope to back soon during regular hours.
