Description
We are heading to the Eagle Ford Shale area and will tour Cuero, which is in DeWitt County, Texas, and is also the county seat. Cuero is officially known as the “Turkey Capital of the World”. It’s also a significant cattle producer and shipper in Texas, and was historically a major point along the Chisholm Trail. Our first stop of the day will be the Cuero Heritage Museum to view the current featured exhibits and other city exhibits, and also visit the Pharmacy and Medical Museum that houses displays of items from the late 1800s through the early 1900s. Walking through the various displays, one quickly realizes that early pharmacy/drugstores sold just about everything, not just medicines and medical equipment. Our next stop will be for lunch at Taqueria Jalisco. After lunch, we will visit the Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum. This museum tells the stories and preserves the memories of DeWitt County’s rich agricultural and cowboy histories. Cost includes motorcoach transportation, lunch, admission fees, and tips.
