Ranches are part of America’s fabric. The very idea of them conjures up images of wide-open spaces, sun-kissed cowboys and a slow-paced, idyllic way of life. So idyllic that every year, urban dwellers don hats and boots for a Western vacation on one of the country’s many dude ranches. City life is left at the metaphorical gate for horses named Bandit and Hawkeye, Rio and Deuce stand bridled and ready for the proverbial trail.
Unlocking a fascinating world perhaps otherwise only seen in nature documentaries or on an African safari, today’s zoos are losing a tarnished reputation of cruelty and are instead heralded as environmental blessings. The world’s greatest zoos are committed to the conservation of wildlife and its natural environment and are making a positive impact on the survival of threatened species in the wild.
The world is full of natural wonders and spectacular panoramas which have inspired humanity since time immemorial. And while man has continually tried to capture Earth’s beauty in word, art and imagery, such attempts simply scratch the surface. Its prized possessions should be experienced in person, surrounded by the very scenery which have won such acclaim.
The 5th of May—or in Spanish, el
Cinco de Mayo—in many United States
cities means one thing: fiesta time. Mariachi music winds through streets as
sombrero-clad Mexican men play guitars and women click their castanets
and dance folkloric-style along parade routes in large hooped dresses.
Boulevards and squares are festooned with red, white and green, and
street vendors and restaurants offer up tamales and empañadas washed
down with cold cervezas and tequila.
Every summer the United States comes together as a nation to celebrate its favorite holiday--its birthday. The fourth of July marks the date when America gained its independence from the British and signed the Declaration of Independence.
In the not too distant past, perhaps a mere 150 to 200 years ago, most people earned a living on the farm, or in industries stemming from agriculture. While in today's rat-race society the rural lifestyle may seem simple and old-fashioned, the fruits of farming still account for a big piece of each state's economic pie, and the country's string of exuberant state fairs acknowledges, promotes and celebrates that.
