It's hot, Houston. So hot, there's really only two options: Submerge yourself in a body of water, or leave behind the toughest part of the year in this brutal tropical clime, and head for the hills—no, make that mountains. Thousands of feet from sea level, in the cool, clean air, surrounded by breathtaking beauty, you can take a break from your beloved Bayou City. It will still be here when you get back.
