Bob Bullock State History Museum

The Story of Texas-Born around the Campfire...

On Saturday, we spent a leisurely afternoon chillin' at the Bob Bullock State History Museum. 

This museum had three levels of information and artifacts intricately displayed which truly did tell the story of Texas. What was especially impressive was the use of multiple forms of media used to draw our interest. We especially enjoyed the interactive presentation of 'The Story of Texas' which included wind, smoke, rain and the sensation of rattlesnakes shaking up your seat! Following our walkabout looking at longhorns, oil rigs, war planes, astronauts, the Alamo, swords, knives, pottery and guns ... we took in our first family IMAX movie at the museum ... 'Monsters vs. Aliens'! So much fun...we all really enjoyed it.... I know it was a departure from the historical element of a museum... but so be it... it rocked!

*BTW- can't take pics inside the museum- copyright protection... :( bummer - hence the limited pics!
