This is one Amazing Tour of what took place 'yesteryear' for 50 years of operating and is a must stop for anyone to attend. They also give you a 'wooden token' that is redeemable for one-dollar-in-trade for Girls, Whiskey or Tobacco - they just don't tell you where (I asked - hey, I was just curious). There is also a "Miss Hatties Cafe & Saloon" just a couple doors down from the Bordello. We ate there a few times and enjoyed the experience with a decor of 'yesteryear' - and they will also point out where the tunnel was from the Bordello that came up where the restaurant is now. The 'Museum' is a magnificent tour, all on the Second Floor via lots of stair-steps - and in original condition.

It was a rainy and windy day in San Angelo. Perfect for visiting a museum. But this visit was kinda…read moredisappointing! From the outside, the San Angelo Museum of Fine Arts looks really nice! Modern architecture, nice patio outside, etc. I had no idea it would be so snoozy. Admission was $2 per adult, and honestly? It should be free! There's really NOTHING to see. The museum is only 3 floors, and the first floor consists of administrative offices. The second floor hosted a gift shop (small), a permanent exhibit (very small, 1 room) and a non-permanent exhibit, Sacred Visions, which was essentially just a bunch of creepy religious relics. There was a pretty fountain in the middle. The third floor hosted a permanent exhibit, which also consisted of religious relics. The entire time we were there, a docent followed us around creepily. I know docents are common in museums...but seriously? We were the ONLY people in the museum, and she was watching us like we were going to steal something. Not cool. It's a shame that this museum isn't more interesting. It seems like this neck of the woods would have a lot of old culture to it.

Fort Concho is one of several preserved U.S. cavalry forts established in the 19th century designed to protect the west Texas frontier. This one was established in 1867, and the Fort Concho Foundation has done a good job preserving the remaining buildings. One of the Buffalo Soldier regiments was stationed here, but there's not a whole lot of info posted about their stay here. According to the Fort Concho web site, they have a guided tour Wednesday through Sunday. I visited on a Wednesday but was only informed of the self-guided tour ($3 per person). The self guided tour begins with the officers' quarters and is a bit disappointing. The buildings are wonderfully preserved but there's just not a lot to see or even read about. When I got to the enlisted side of the fort, there was a lot more info, history, and things to see. Park across the street for free in the farmer's market parking lot on South Oakes Street. Make sure you stop by the mule barn behind the enlisted barracks. It's not a historic building, but you can check our four or five mules if you like. Pro Tip: One of the buildings on the officers' side of the fort has an antique telephone museum located within. It has nothing to do with the fort, but it's still fun to checkout.

This was a time for the transitioning male to educate my father on the importance of their chosen lifestyle, but instead all she did was shame and yell at him. The other library staff did not help and just agreed with the their co-worker. This shows lack of professionalism within the staff. We will not be using the library anymore due to this behavior, and we will make an effort to spread the word of this unprofessional event to all friends and family. Always choose to educate those that do not understand. Shame and anger do nothing but shut down others from listening and understanding.
