Under the Texas Sky


It is definitely nice to venture south for a bit and enjoy the warmer weather.  What is even nicer, is the fact that it is quite chilly back home and they may even be in for some snow showers.  I guess it is time to soak in this nice weather while it lasts because soon enough we will be back to colder temperatures and fitting right in with the winter season.



Until then, it was time to enjoy Houston, Texas after we made it through our first flying experience where the weight of your bags actually mattered this time.  There was so much unpacking, repacking, and rearranging going on.  I mean who knew that if you had a bag that was 45 pounds and one that was 55 pounds, that you would have to rearrange.  I thought both could equal 100 pounds and you would be ok, but I guess not.  So, yes, I was that person that had to empty things out and move them around and pray that it was enough to make it an even 50/50.

Oh well, it all worked out and even though there was a quick turn around for the next opening show, it was time to make our time in Houston worth while.

The Museum District had something for everyone if that is your kind of thing.  Personally, the Natural Science Museum was pretty cool and even touched on history and different cultures as well.



As you walked through that district you were surrounded by the Hermann Park and a large lake with so many ducks, neutrals, and geese.  It was a nice change from the city life.

The Houston Zoo was a good time too as you walked from animal to animal under trees that stretched over the sidewalk and were decorated in lights of various colors.



Then it was time to get back to business though and it was on to performing.

The Houston Texans football stadium was where it was all taking place.  It was huge!! Just standing on the ground and looking up at all the rows and rows of stadium seats, really made you appreciate where you were and what it was like for the football players to walk out onto the field for game day.



Anyways, that was city number one out of four in Texas.  On to more warm weather for this week!!
