(Note: This is the slightly modified version of a webpage that was on the now defunct Texas Xena Militia (TXM) website. TXM was a group of Texas Xena fans. I take around a 10 inch doll. Texans, of course do everything BIG - they took around a SIX FOOT Standee. Originally posted on the web in 1996)
Since we doubt that Lucy will ever make it to the heart of Texas...we improvised. Obviously we have reached a whole new level of NUTBALL status...previously considered unattainable by normally shy or otherwise sensible gals.
Xena's been to most of the favored tourist attractions in these parts, and then some. We had as much fun "thinking" of weird and wacky places to take Xena for a photo op as we had actually doing it. We got some REAL strange looks, but unfortunately no insalubrious offers we could accept without buying a dog collar and a leash.
We are looking forward to EVENTUALLY taking Gabrielle on a tour of Dallas! (If we ever get a Gabby standee)
