Texas Vacation
Of course there's more to Texas than cowboys, cactus and the open range.  But if roping', ridin' and old-fashioned relaxin' is your style, why, there's no place better in the world!

Roswell, New Mexico: Alien Vacation


Roswell, New Mexico
Independence Day celebrations in 1947 were marked by events of cosmic magnitude.  On that infamous day, intense thunderstorms demonstrated the power of the heavens.  Amidst a blinding rain and an electric-filled sky, radar tracked an object fall towards Earth.  Rumors of debris-strewn fields and military cover up suggested an UFO had crashed in the Roswell area.  The mystery of the "Roswell incident" attracts a host of visitors annually.  Is Earth a target of galactic probes or is New Mexico simply an out-of-this-world place to vacation?
Discover Roswell!
