The Great Outdoors
Fun summer events to get you moving.
HORSEYS!
If you’re looking to get back in the saddle, try Green Acres Ranch & Equestrian Club. Just 35 miles east of Dallas, this is the place to hit the happy trails with Trigger. Novices welcome, pardner. 972-636-2007.
SKATING!
Join the Pegasus Flyers Inline Skate Club for a rolling tour of downtown Dallas, Deep Ellum, and all the low and high points in between. www.pegasusflyers.org.
SAILING!
Don’t know a mast from a rudder? No worries. The folks at Magellan Sailing Center will set you straight with a schooner and soon have you riding the high seas (or at least a nice calm lake) with salty skills. 214-827-8990 or www.saildallas.com.
BIRDIES!
Take in the flora and the fauna along the Trinity River (yes, that Trinity River) with your own private canoe expedition through Trinity River Expeditions. The four-hour trip is a nice way to spend a lazy, hazy summer day. 214-941-1757.
