Bob's heritage in museum

A really cold day.  The wind was biting.  Coldest day of the winter, apparently.  A day to be inside so we went up the Tower of the Americas and saw the city from high up.


The Institute of Texan Culture proved an excellent place to shelter.  It is stuffed with exhibits relating to the history and development of Texas, one of which features the Wendish!!!

We were so chuffed that we told a staff member of the connection and she insisted on giving us a book on them, worth $25!  How's that for Texan hospitality!
Now resting our feet before wrapping up again and going out for supper in a Mexican restaurant

    What a very generous act to give you a copy of the Wendish book and it just goes to show that you are made from pioneer stock, Bob. I look forward to hearing more about that. It seems funny to see you in the snow when we are in T shirts and THONGS!
