Western Travel Ideas
Travelers who love the old west may consider visiting some of the best western museums in the country. While the true old west has long been gone, the spirit of the old west lives on.
The National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City, OK is home to many collections and exhibits of Western art. Highlights of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum include Prosperity Junction, replica of a turn-of-the-century cattle town. This section is excellent for those who want to be transported back to a simpler time. The Weitzenhoffer Gallery of Fine American Firearms includes many firearms used in the second half of the 19th century. Other sections of the museum include American Rodeo Gallery, Native American Gallery, Children's Cowboy Corral, and more.
The Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame in Forth Worth, TX honors those cowboys who have contributed and excelled in the cowboy way of life in various fields such as sports and business. There is plenty to see at the Texas Cowboy hall of Fame such as The Sterquell Wagon Collection (lifestyle wagons), Amon G Carter Cadillac, and Adventures of The Cowboy with much more. The Adventures of the Cowboy Trail includes hands-on exhibits at different stations.
The American Cowboy Museum on the Taylor-Stevenson Ranch in Houston, TX is more than 150 years old and with the same family for seven generations. The ranch is very family-friendly with the opportunity to tour with exhibits, hands-on activities, and great stories. The ranch is also available for parties and other activities as well.
A western theme party is excellent for those looking to bring the old west to their very own home. Decorate the party area with wall scene setters of the old west, bar doors, hay, and cowboy and cowgirl costumes.

You can make all the guest’s name tags and as they arrive have them participate in the karaoke activities, as this will break the ice among the invites.
