Fall has arrived!

And we’re celebrating here at Texas Highways with a November issue that focuses on Lone Star destinations that are all the more enjoyable in the beauty of a cool Texas autumn. Join us as we tour the storied King Ranch, hike the colorful trails at Lost Maples State Natural Area, trace the inspirational footsteps of artist Georgia O’Keeffe at Palo Duro Canyon, honor the memory of President John F. Kennedy at the Sixth Floor Museum, and much more. Yes, there’s a lot to read about and a lot of traveling to do—yet the days are getting shorter. Better get moving!

		Where the Santa Gertrudis Roam Riding strong for 160 years, King Ranch straddles a vast breadth of South Texas and its history. Join our tour of the legendary ranch, past and present.
		Some Things You Never Forget On the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination, we visit the Sixth Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza to reflect on the life and legacy of the nation’s 35th president.
		Georgia O’Keeffe: Canyon and Sky Artist Georgia O’Keeffe found inspiration in the beauty of the High Plains and Palo Duro Canyon. Fortunately, a visit today holds the same potential for the rest of us.
		Where in Texas are you? Name the location of this dance hall and you could win a San Antonio prize package!
