We got moving a little late, but not too late, and headed on down to the Houston Museum of Natural Science. Reese had a really good time, but I was a little bit let down by the quality of some of the exhibits. There were too many of the electronic ones that were broken. I guess museum funding is one of the first things that suffers during a bad economy, but…

One of the high points was the butterfly habitat, which was a lot of fun to wander through, and Reese seemed to enjoy himself. We ran in to a German couple while in there and had some fun with them and a very persistent butterfly.

On the way out I let Reese pick out a geode and we had it cracked open. It had some really nice quartz crystals inside. Reese and I agreed to keep halves at each house, so mine is wrapped up to go in the saddlebags now…
