After being cooped up for so long during the pandemic we decided to take a road trip to Victoria. The map on my phone kept sending me to the wrong place so I had to call to see if the museum was open. It is on Victoria College campus which also shares the are with University of Houston Victoria. There was not a vehicle on campus due to the shutdown so it was kind of creepy. Luckily they were open and we were the only visitors at the time. The museum is small but has enough history to keep your interest. There are artifacts from early area history dating back 13,000 years such as dart points, atlatl, stone knives, example of straw house that early settlers used and much more. There are also some iron cannons from a La Salle expedition in 1685 that were buried in a lost settlement called Fort St. Louis. These cannons were recently found in 1996. We enjoyed our visit here.

I received a wonderful birthday gift of 3 spa treatments at Woodhouse Spa, N. Wheeler, Victoria, TX. My massage therapist was able to work specifically on my most overworked muscles and I enjoyed a relaxing facial and pedicure as well. The staff was very pleasant and treated me like someone special. The business is located in a historical 1910 house that has been beautifully refurbished. Consider treating yourself to a spa afternoon or be the giver Of such a gift.
