Location: WI | I'll be visiting just east of Waco in a couple weeks. Anything I need to see while I'm in the area? I like sight seeing, nature, animals, old West type stuff.
Let me know! Thanks |

Location: on the fine line between insanity and geniusness | If you've ever watched Fixer Upper on TV, the Silos owned by Chip and Joanna Gaines is in downtown Waco. They have a bakery, food trucks, a retail shop- all kinds of cool stuff! |

| You can't get much more western than the Texas Ranger Museum. The Dr Pepper museum. The suspension bridge. That is all I can think of right now. Dinosaur Valley state park is cool but in Glen Rose. |

Location: Texas! | I live 30 miles from Waco in a small town, Clifton. It's a very nice area with some antique shops. I really enjoy Waco, the Fixer Upper boom has really helped the town. The Silo's are neat but very crowded all the time, Dr. Pepper museum, Texas Rangers museum. Also there is a good farmers market on Saturday mornings. Where will you be east of Waco? There are a few wineries as well if that's your thing. There is a farm called Homestead Heriitage you should check out as well! They work everything by hand and Ive heard Uta a great experience. |

Location: Texas! | Also, the mammoth national park! It's a very neat tour about the herd of mammoths found in Waco that are still in the ground. |

Location: Texas | Definitely go to the Texas Ranger Museum in Waco. Also of importance is the old Fort Parker in Groesbeck. The cute little town of Calvert isn't far.
