Just got back from four days in Austin, where I saw among things the Bob Bullock Texas State History Museum.  It has been open since 2001, but I just got around to seeing it as a belated Father’s Day present from my son, Brett.

After wandering the three floors for more than five and a half hours, I can only say I wish I had visited the museum sooner.  The layout and organization of exhibits is nothing less than pure creative genius.  You do not have to be a Texas History buff much less a professional like myself to enjoy the experience while learning a heck of lot in the process. 

I encourage everyone, Texans of every description and folks just passing through, to put the Texas State History Museum on their must-see list.  You won’t be disappointed.
