26 WAC Magazine | wac.net club life reciprocal club We all know the old saying: Everything is bigger in Texas. But it's not just wide- open cattle country. Consider this. e Lone Star State has three of the 10 big- gest cities in the U.S., including Dallas. Founded in 1841, Dallas' rich history provides no shortage of sightseeing, and the downtown city center is the perfect place to start. Here you'll find Pioneer Plaza, where longhorn oxen—frozen in bronze—roam free. Other popular sights nearby include the Dallas Muse- um of Art and e Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza. Located in the former Texas School Book Depository, the mu- seum tells the story of former President John F. Kennedy's assassination. Shoppers won't want to miss Main Street District, dotted with stores and restaurants and anchored by the famous Giant Eyeball statue. It's a photo-op all first-time visitors to the Big D need. Get beyond the city core and you'll find the Dallas Zoo and the George W. Bush Presidential Center. A short drive to Dallas' metroplex neighbor, Fort Worth, brings even more to see and do. Take a trip to the Wild, Wild West at the Fort Worth Stock- yards, a National Historic District with brick walkways, wooden corrals, and twice-daily cattle drives. Or dive deep into Southwestern culture at Sundance Square Plaza, the Amon Carter Muse- um of American Art, or the Kimbell Art Museum. Time your visit with the 2023 Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, set for January 13–February 4, for a full-im- mersion experience. Wherever you go during your next trip to Texas, go big!
