are BIG and BRIGHT...(clap, clap, clap, clap)....deep in the heart of Texas!
Visiting the tourist bureau has been on our list for a while now. Sunday afternoon on a whim we decided to visit not just the tourist bureau here in the Big State of Texas, but to also visit the one right across the State line in Louisiana.
They are literally less than five minutes away from each other so it was a no-brainer. Both tourist bureaus have boardwalks leading on into the marshy water. One gator sunning on the Texas side, lots of horse flies, no snakes, but lots of really pretty water plants. Peaceful with high humidity and little boys eager to find wildlife. Although Brant and I decided Louisiana had the better boardwalk the boys were true to Texas.
They especially loved the "free store" to pick up "magazines"(brochures) to many cities throughout Texas. Oh the road trips we could take across this Great State!!!!!
Little did I know this impromptu visit to the tourist bureau would created a learning experience too. As we were leaving I had to take a picture of the six flags. Of course we all had commented and wondered why the six flags.
If I learned this at some point in history I surely do not remember. But now I know. If you are curious you can read about the Six Flags of Texas

How cool that you were able to hit TWO states one the same day!
That is AWESOME. You got some great pictures. I now want to go to Texas just to take some of your cool pictures myself!
Y'all are the cutest! Love making family memories by seeing new places and exploring where you live! We could do a better job of this in Atlanta! Hope you have a great weekend, Tasha!

Way to go finding some inexpensive activities girl! We always try to visit the local historical museums in small towns we pass through. They provide plenty of interesting and educational material.
