It's that time of year when we begin our monthly bus trips to new and exciting places.  For our September trip we are going to the Heritage Society at Sam Houston Park, right here in Houston!

xperience the epic story of Texas and the American West at The Bryan Museum located in the 1895 Galveston Orphans Home.  The museum houses one of the world’s largest collections of historical artifacts, documents, and artwork relating to Texas and the American West.   Four galleries of artifacts and documents which focus on the history and exploration of Texas and the American West including the Age of Contact, colonization under Stephen F. Austin, the Texas Revolution, and early statehood.
