From the early 1800’s, Dallas was booming with activity on the western front. Our cowboys set out on a hardship mission to run the many cattle drives on our amous Shawnee Trail and our Pioneers had the vision to make Dallas more than just a trading post on the banks of our Trinity River.
The roots of our city remain deep with the same friendliness, down to earth attitudes and successful pride that was present back in the days of the early cowboy. Today, our urban cowboy roots sprawl throughout the eighth largest city in the United States. With western affluence, we remain in the present as a model of the modern Texas that offers visitors the very best in culture, attractions, sports, dining, ranches and incredible shopping. Come see for yourself how the true spirit of Dallas can be seen into the past and far into the future!
Seattle is anything but ordinary. It’s a place where bike messengers share elevators with world-renowned researchers. Where fishermen have lunch alongside top surgeons.

From a jet engine to an espresso machine to grunge rock, Seattle’s world-changing events have all had a distinct sound. But the symphony doesn’t end there. Your visit to Seattle may bring you the sound of an orca blowing as it surfaces, the roar of the crowd at Safeco Field or the near silence of the Olympic rainforest.
