My Girlfriend Getaway article, on BIG D, came out on the front page of the Lifestyles section in the Amarillo Globe News today. Newspapers have to keep it brief, so a few of my favorite spots didn't make it into the sidebar sections. Here are the ones that didn't make it. To see the others you'll have to get a copy of the paper since the sidebars of the cool spots don't show up online.

Suit your fancy:
You need lots of time to explore all the art, history, sporting events and such that Dallas has to offer, so pick one, for now.
