South Texas Plains Online Exhibit

Well, I've taken as much time off as I can afford and actually extended my holiday period another two weeks into the new year while the rest of you were just pretending to work.  It's been lovely, but it's time to "spool up" for 2007 and see if I can provide you with more about Texas and its people than I did in 2006.

In that regard ...if you haven't visited Texas Beyond History yet and seen their exqusite online exhibit called South Texas Plains, you're really missing a splendid oppotunity to quickly get your arms around the physical features, places, history and more for that area of the state.  This is good stuff ...for both young and old.

Using state-of-the-art techniques, the staff at the Texas Archelogical Laboratory have presented an interactive experience that is truly compelling.

Texas Beyond History Website Looks At Texas Archeologically

(Podcast)
Texas Beyond History is a remarkable website that combines Texas history, archeology, anthropology and more.  It's for thinkers, students and the curious.  Dr. Steve Black and his colleagues have created a virtual museum online.  It's very unique ... and very informative.  Dr. Black talked to me from his office at the Texas Archeological Research Laboratory in Austin.
