Hump Day

It's wednesday, hump day, two more days till the weekend. Last weekend was great, a nice long 4 day holiday weekend. I wonder what's going to happen this weekend? No plans as of yet, but we're not really known for making plans ahead of time. Unfortunately it feels like summer is in full swing here in Houston, hot hot and humid, yuck! So that makes spending time in the great outdoors a whole lot harder... and that seems like all I want to do.

A few things I'd like to do this weekend (if it's not 100% humid out, blah)

1. Check out Brazos Bend State Park
I've been in Texas (this time around) for a year and a half now and have yet to explore any state parks or nature reserves. Plus this place is known for having a lot of alligators! I'd love to see some of these guys up close and personal :)

2. Go to the beach!
Ok so even if it's horribly hot and humid this weekend that's all the more reason to spend a day down in Galveston. Relax and lay out by the water, sounds good to me!

3. Museums anyone?
Houston has a whole museum district. It would be fun to check any of them out; art, space, science. Hmmm I wonder if any offer student discounts, I'll have to look into that...

4. Houston Observatory
It's located in Brazos Bend! Two birds with one stone?? Plus it's open on saturday nights. John and I have been watching a lot of space documentaries lately on Netflix so I think we'd both really enjoy checking it out.

5. Beer Can House!
Did you know that there's a house in Houston made out of beer cans? Well maybe not entirely out of beer cans but from the pictures it looks like they cover the whole house. Open weekends, fun to stop by and check it out. Feel like a tourist. Talk about recycling!!!

I guess I'll just have to wait and see what we end up doing this weekend. We're both off from work saturday and sunday (yeah!) so anythings possible :)
