My parents and two brothers (14 and 21) are coming up to visit at the end of this month to attend a trophy show in Lewisville. Just wondering if anyone had some good ideas for activities that we could go do. Six flags is out (and anything that takes a lot of walking) cause dad has pretty severe back problems and can't walk for 6+ hours at a time.

Thanky
