Default Anything in Paris, TX ????

Hey everyone,

It appears am will be doing a 6wk residency/rotation in Paris, TX for school. Should start somewhere around mid November and ends sometime early in January (havent really looked at exact dates).

So, what is there to do in this town? Is the town wet (as in EtOH) or do I need to pack up a lot of it before I head up there?

thx

Only time I've spent there was at a bed n breakfast, there is the 3rd largest Eifell Tower (was the 2nd until Vegas built theirs). There are a few pics on my website from there.

As for doing stuff, if you like antique shopping, that is the place to be. If you like doing anything else, you should find somewhere else. Don't know about the dry county there......

There is a small Indian casino just north of Paris in Oklahoma. I believe there is a beer store at the state line as well. Maybe 10 minutes out of town. Not sure is Paris is wet or dry.

if i'm not mistaken, Paris is not wet. U have to go down the road to a town called "Toco." They have a beer store and a liquor store there.
