Dallas & Northeast Texas
Spend two days museum-hopping in Dallas ( Click here ) . Be sure to take a break for shop-
ping and dining in the Bishop Arts District, or for braving the huge Galleria megamall.
Then it's time to head east for small-town pleasures among the pine forests. Be sure to de-
tour down FM 279; the 8-mile stretch of road from Ben Wheeler to Edom ( Click here ) has
a surprising number of cafes, artisan shops and live music in the evenings. You can spend
the night in nearby Tyler ( Click here ) , which is an especially good idea if it's spring and
the azaleas are in bloom - or if you want to see a tiger sanctuary.
From there continue east, pausing for lunch and to see the Rangerette Showcase & Mu-
seum and the old oil derricks in the little town of Kilgore ( Click here ) . Spending three
nights in Jefferson ( Click here ) allows you to peruse the historic town and take excursions.
