Dallas, Texas and the surrounding suburbs including our sister
city of Fort Worth is a wonderful place to live. We have every
kind of recreation, restaurant, museum, sports team/event,
and shopping that you could want.
Dallas is a very handicapped friendly city. I have been to
the American Airlines center for sporting events and concerts,
Smirinoff for concerts, State Fair Music Hall, Majestic Theatre,
Theatre Three, Museum of Natural History, the Amon Carter
Museum, the State Fair of Texas and too many restaurants to
name. In each case, I found reasonable access and helpful
people. I am going to include some useful links for you.
Please don?t hesitate to call me with a specific question
about the area. I have lived here most of my life. What I
do not know I can find out.
