The Concho River flows through San Angelo, Texas and the city has done a lot of work installing parks and walkways along the banks of the river but I spent most of my time exploring the section close to the downtown area. There is evidence this section has seen a lot of improvement that goes way back to the beginning of the 1900s and improvements were still ongoing at the time of my visit. Should I get an opportunity to return to the area I may explore other areas as well!

But there was only one that attracted men with lots to spend for a visit to a high-class Gentleman's Club run by a woman they called Miss Hattie

There is much to say about this incredible museum that houses artifacts and their stories from the very beginnings of human settlement in the Texas Panhandle. There is history from well-known pioneers such as Charles Goodnight and Quanah Parker. Why don't we go on a guided tour of the museum first and then explore an annual celebration of a legacy that began with the JA Ranch?
