As a Texas native, I always look forward to this time of year, not because of fall foliage and temperatures that hover somewhere between brisk and perfection—autumn is somewhat of an abstract concept in Texas—but because this is Texas State...

"Tutankhamun and the Golden Age of the Pharaohs" at the Dallas Museum of Art runs through May 2009, while the State Fair of Texas goes one more week – meaning it's still possible to scarf two corny dogs before ogling a gold-embossed coffin. Just don't leave smudge marks.

Since the fourth grade, I've wanted to see the King Tut exhibit so the boy king's arrival at the Dallas Museum of Art is an Egyptian artifact lover's (or Cleopatra wannabe's) dream come true. HOWEVER, dreams come with a price and golden boy's is steep. Weekend adult tickets are $32.50.
