| Texas is the
second largest state in the United States. Its vast wide
open spaces comprise 8 regions from the plains of the
Panhandle, to big cities of Dallas - Fort Worth, Austin, San
Antonio and Houston, to its charming western villages in the
hill country, piney woods, and gulf coast. The state is
about land -plenty, water - precious, and pride - abundant.
The people you meet here are friendly hosts who love a good
story, good food and plenty of activities. Their genuine joy
of life is infectious. Lakes and rivers provide venues for
boating, fishing, and hunting. Villages and towns invite a
gently relaxation with find food, country antiques and
bed
and breakfast inns. There are lots of ranches to give
you a western experience and a kind horse to ride.
Wildflowers are big in Texas. In fact thanks to former first
lady, Lady Bird Johnson, you will see wildflowers growing
all along the highway and by-ways of the state. From
Azaleas, Roses, and Dogwood in the Pineywoods region to
acres of blue bonnets blanketing rolling hills in the
countryside - this great state celebrates its color. |
