recommendations for the weird and wacky
If you live in the Houston area, you’ve got to check out the Orange Show Center for Visual Arts & their Eye Opener tours. When discussing plans for upcoming installments of Tourist in my Hometown, my friends Neil and Ethun recommended this quirky little jaunt. I’m putting together plans to get down there and experience it myself.
Word is, Weird Tours of Chicago are similarly wacky and awesome. But in all this awesomeness, I can’t seem to find a tour of Dallas that isn’t same ole, same ole.
If you know of any out-of-the-ordinary ways to experience your city (or mine!), I’d love to hear about it.
Next: the down low on the up in the air.

Take care and keep all the texas boys in check - they need a good verba” whip from time to time
The Orange Show is a neat place! It’s in an “interesting” neighborhood. Speaking of Texas, I recently went on a canopy tour located just outside of Austin. The experience was exhillirating and I highly recommend it. The staff also teach you about the enviroment and how their facility is “green.” You should give it a try when you go see your sister (if she still lives there).
