Hey there, y'all! Are you ready to experience some heart-stopping rodeo action? Look no further than the Mesquite Championship Rodeo, where you can cheer on some of the most talented athletes and cowboys in the world. From bucking bulls to barrel racing, you'll see it all under the bright lights of the Mesquite Arena. And it's only a short drive from downtown Dallas.  So grab your boots and cowboy hat, and head on down to the Rodeo Capital of Texas for a night you won't forget.

The Granada Theater must have been quite the spectacle when it first opened in the Dallas market on January 16, 1946, with the screening of "Mildred Pierce." Even today, it continues to impress with its stunning exterior adorned with neon lights that evoke the glitz and glamor of Hollywood's Golden Era. You'll find plenty of art deco designs inside and out, with rounded corners and linear accents that harken back to a bygone era. You will want to attend the main hall's original art murals, designed by the same artists behind Los Angeles's famed Grauman's Chinese Theater. These grand-scale murals depict various film genres, while the ceiling features a stunning mythological "film goddess" standing over a film reel. It's truly a sight to behold.

Are you ready for an exciting and educational journey through aviation history? The Frontiers of Flight Museum is the perfect destination for you. This museum takes you on a thrilling timeline of aviation history, starting from the early pioneers in the 1920s during the Golden Age of Flight and progressing to today's jet and rocket age. You will see a World War I biplane, models, uniforms, decorations, engines and propellers, and the most significant unburned piece from the Hindenburg tragedy of 1937. The museum also showcases more than 200 models representing nations involved in World War II. You will be amazed when you witness the evolution of aviation, from the P-51 Mustang aircraft, which reached 450 mph, to the SR-71 Blackbird, which cruised at an incredible 2,100 mph.
