To help my wife be more productive, I decided to visit some of the local attractions (in other words, she was sick of me watching TV and kicked me out while she graded papers.)

I decided on the National Museum of Funeral History, as it was a bit of a drive and I wouldn’t be in that part of the city for any other reason.

The museum closed and I drove back into town. I had spent a little time marking places of interest on my Houston road map, so I pulled that out. The Beer Can House was in Houston proper and from what I knew I could see much of it from the sidewalk. A shrine to beer, I’m glad I stopped by.
There are other places I’m eager to visit, but I think I’ll have to drag the missus to those.
