The History of Rainbow, Texas

Rainbow, Texas, might be better known for the unique way it got its name than any attraction within its city limits. The Handbook of Texas states that the residents of the area 1890 got together to name the small community that had grown there. At the time of the meeting, a thunderstorm blew in, and afterward, a rainbow formed across the sky. Rainbow has since maintained its modest population, with under 100 residents. However, the recent development of nearby Dinosaur Valley State Park and the city of Glen Rose provide a reason to believe the build-up of Rainbow is imminent. The following are a few of the things to do during your vacation stay.

Dinosaur Valley State Park

It contains some of the best-preserved dinosaur tracks in the world, according to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Destinations site.
