Over the 4th we decided to take a short trip down to San Antonio which is one of my favorite places to visit. We go a few times a year to enjoy the river walk. This time the weather was poor so we explored somewhere new! The Witte museum is part natural history, part native history, and part cowboy/ cowgirl history. We went through exabits on various dinosaur bones and fossil found in Texas (T-rexes were one of them in case you happen to be thinking of time traveling... lol). There were also maps of Texas throughout the prehistoric periods showing that it spent a lot of time under water and as part of a massive coastline which explains why they find so many fossils.
But of course the best part of the museum involved horses!
I loved this museum display, the attention to detail was superb. I'm sure this would be a pretty strong setup on the live show table too!
Then we moved on to old west tack. Sorry for the glare from the glass.
I really liked the use of color on this particular saddle.
And here we have a nice sidesaddle!
I also go some photos of the wagon of course!
As well as the information placard.
I really enjoyed the museum, if you are near San Antonio definitely go, we spent over 4 hrs there! Also if anyone want to use these as reference pics, I don't mind.
