franciscanheart Posted August 4, 2004 Author Share Posted August 4, 2004 Um Dallas has quite a few museums here too! We have a whole art district!!!! We have art throughout our streets. We are famous for PEGASUS. Dallas was a TV Show. Dallas has a gorgeous skyline. We not only have urban but rural aspects to our city.... just drive over the Trinity to see what I mean. We are constantly growing, expanding. We have a lot of rich culture celebrated weekly if not daily in our community. We have an excellent transportation system that is not only effective but FUN.

picchick Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 Well, we have the red line, blue line green line. Plus a bunch of buses and taxis running around. But why ride when you can walk in such a beautiful city? We've got a Marshall Fields that has I think 5 stories with glass elevators and in the Christmas time a HUGE tree!!! In the winter, which by the way Dallas doesn't get snow I don't think, we have a huge ice rink!!! Don't forget the three story Old Navy and Michigan Ave with all the stores!! At christmas there is story windows to see too. SO THERE!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

franciscanheart Posted August 4, 2004 Author Share Posted August 4, 2004 um it does snow in Dallas occasionally. We have had snow i believe the last two years. We dont take snow for granted. DART has a bunch of different lines The actual train i believe has two full lines and one extension that goes somewhere fancy.... don't remember where. I dont ride the train a lot. We have Neiman Marcus Must I say more? We have what's called the Galleria. Its amazing It too has a HUGE christmas tree. There again there are hundreds of huge trees in Dallas. Some of the most beautiful I've seen in my own church. The Galleria has hundreds of stores and a hotel We also have the Plaza of the Americas which is not as popular but still good. At Christmas time in Dallas, everyone celebrates and downtown becomes a huge place at night. It already is pretty crowded mind you but everyone is out it seems like during the winter. The horse drawn carriages usually carrying some dating couple or a cute little family of 4. Hmmm.... what else???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
