Summary:

Join adventure traveler Kimberly Young as she explores Austin, Houston, Dallas/Fort Worth, San Antonio, Waco and all the towns and attractions in between. Places to stay and eat are given, but the emphasis is on adventures in this massive state: Rafting the Guadalupe River, deep-sea fishing off the Texas coast, exploring the 96,000-acre Big Thicket National Preserve or Big Bend National Park, river-running the Rio Grande. Cattle drives, dude ranches and rodeos introduce you to the vibrant cowboy culture of the Southwest and relaxing days on the beaches of Padre Island take you away from it al
