Memorial Day is a day set aside to remember our veterans. It's also a time where people gather with family for cookouts, or visit the burial place of their loved ones.

If you're wanting to get out of the house and change things up this year, check out the Texas Air and Space Museum.

My buddy Jordan and I went back today for our second trip, and we actually got to see photos of the new property that the museum is wanting to get moved on to. They have several buildings and a nice size piece of land that will be getting tons of traffic.
