 DEVCON DECISIONS by Clay Mackle, episode 18, Texan Museums. The Institute of Texan Cultures steps away from another of the 1968 World's Fair's signature structures, the Tower of Americas. This museum follows the ethnic and cultural history of the state of Texas and includes many hands-on exhibits for children. The William Museum opened in 1926 and is right next to Breckenridge Park. It contains relocated log cabins and other homes of local historical note and a newly opened four-story center that allows visitors to cycle through a virtual landscape and to learn to cook healthy Mexican food. Located downtown in two blocks from the Alamo is the Buckhorn Saloon and Museum, and also the Texas Ranger Museum. If you're into taxidermy, the Buckhorn's 78-point buck is for you. The Ranger Museum contains a recreation of San Antonio at the turn of the century.
