Dallas (aerial)
USA

A 150' aerial view overlooking Dallas, Oregon just below a fog inversion.  Settled in the 1840s along the north side of Rickreall Creek, Dallas was originally named "Cynthian" or "Cynthiana" after Cynthiana, Kentucky, so named by Mrs. Thomas J. Lovelady after her hometown.  A post office was established in 1852 & in 1856, the town was moved more than a mile south because of an inadequate supply of water.

 

Cynthiana competed with nearby Independence to be selected as the county seat. Its residents raised $17,000 in order to have a branch of the narrow gauge railroad constructed to their town, which secured them the honor and related economic stimulus.  The line was built from 1878–80.  Town leaders believed a more sturdy sounding name was needed for a county seat. Since George Mifflin Dallas was vice-president under James K. Polk, for whom the county was named, they named it "Dallas".  Dallas would be incorporated as a town in 1874 and as a city in 1901.  This view overlooks downtown & the ground of the city courthouse, built in 1899.  A 2020 census reported 16,854 citizens.

More About USA

The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.
