A River Runs Through It If you've only got a few hours to spare, look no further than "express lane" itineraries for the time-crunched traveler. In this issue, we're highlighting the best spots to kill time (or make the most of it) at the Trinity River Audubon Center. For more activities and things to do in DFW, follow us on Facebook or Instagram at @WhereDFW. 90 MINUTES IN: Just a hop, skip and a jump south of downtown Dallas, the 120-acre Trinity River Audubon Center has become the "gateway" to the largest urban hardwood forest in the country. Take a stroll along the Audubon Center's five miles of walking trails (which include scenic skyline views of downtown), find your zen and explore three diverse ecosystems that are home to a

Trinity River Audubon Center multitude of wildlife throughout the Great Trinity Forest. The center also hosts guided kayak and/or canoe adventure tours (no prior experience necessary!) each weekend in May, where outdoor enthusiasts can spend a few hours bird-watching, connecting with nature and imbibing the sights and sounds of the Trinity—from herons and egrets to beavers, butterflies, turtles and river otters.

Whether you have a craving for French toast, a Benedict variety or even a made-fromscratch bloody mary, one of these esteemed eateries offer endless options to savor. AMERICANO Located within the Joule Hotel downtown, Americano is a modern Italian-American restaurant with an inviting atmosphere and an open-air patio. Guests are treated to a $10 mimosa carafe with an order of the $10 breakfast pizza (pictured) during its weekend brunch. Locals also love the ciabatta French toast with almonds, lemonwhipped ricotta, and cranberry maple syrup, as well as the breakfast Bolognese with pappardelle, chili oil, farm egg and pecorino cheese. Brunch beverages include the

basil balsamic bloody mary and the signature bergamot breakfast cocktail. THE GRAPE Greenville Avenue’s longstanding neighborhood bistro The Grape will celebrate its 45th anniversary this October. Chef/Owner Brian Luscher and wife Courtney purchased the restaurant from the original owners in 2007, and soon began serving Sunday brunch. Don’t be surprised if you see local celebrity chefs dining alongside you, savoring dishes like the popular shredded oxtail and banana pepper hash, biscuits and gravy, “The Haystack” or classic cheeseburger (only available during brunch).

Ryan Palmer [PGA golfer] Golfer Ryan Palmer always views the mid-May swing that brings the PGA Tour to North Texas as a homecoming of sorts. This spring, the AT&T Byron Nelson and the Dean & DeLuca Invitational will make Palmer appreciate life on the home front even more. Here, the Texas native talks about the hometown tournaments and living the good life in DFW. Read the full interview at wheretraveler.com/dallas. —Jay Bemis How do you feel about your chances this year at the Byron, where you nearly won in 2011? I always have confidence going into the AT&T Byron Nelson and the Dean & DeLuca at the Colonial ... With the success I've had [at the Byron], it's fun to play in front of family and friends, and the crowd's always great there. I love the week. I always feel I can win that week, anytime. And, of course, with the Colonial (the

Dean & DeLuca) being my home course—especially after last year, finishing third to Jordan (Spieth)—I've got a little redemption for myself to go in and give myself a chance to win. It's the one event I want to win more than anything, I think, on tour. I look forward to those two weeks every year. What does a player need to do to play well there?

We get involved with the other members in the "big" games we play all the time. There will be times when I'm home where we'll play two or three rounds throughout the week. It's one of the best golf courses we play on tour, for sure. The history of the golf course, the history of the tournament ... I'm honored to be a part of that club.

That's always a great, popular spot. We'll go up Sunday after the tournament and hang out ... Hopefully the [Dallas] Stars are in the playoffs during those two weeks so we try to go to a game. It's always nice to get out to a Texas Rangers game with some friends. But during tournament week I'm pretty much to myself—just relaxing with Jen and the kids and trying to stay focused.

You've really got to bring your second shots from certain areas of the fairway to have the best chance. And you get the winds off there every year, [which] makes it even tougher. It's a "patient" golf course. Fortunately, I've learned to be more patient each year and
