Quick Escapes from Dallas/Forth Worth
by June Naylor

From the Quick Escapes series.

This guide details twenty-three itineraries ideal for weekend getaways or overnight trips. Relive the Victorian era on the Galveston escape, dine on Cajun eats and try your luck at a riverboat casino on the Red River Retreat escape, or enjoy Austin's thriving music scene on the Capital Retreat escape.

Twenty-three quick and convenient minivacations take you away from the hustle and bustle of the city:

• Experience the cowboy way of life, go tubing down the Medina River, and admire the brilliant fall foliage of Lost Maples State Natural Area in the Bandera, Lost Maples, Uvalde, and Boerne escape.
• Take in a musical at an 1886 opera house, go antiquing for treasures along a historic town square, and visit a 1,500-acre park with the world's best-preserved dinosaur tracks in the Granbury and Glen Rose escape.
• Explore the rich history of the plaza at the end of the Santa Fe Trail, shop for treasures from Native American artisans, and tour the "valley of the wild roses" in the Santa Fe escape.
