Fire Museum Beaumont, TX

FMOT...The Fire Museum of Texas is "The Official Fire Museum of Texas". Located in downtown Beaumont, it has been preserving the history of fire fighting service since it opened in 1986.

The museum is housed in a 1927 Central Fire Station, a Historic Landmark in eastern Texas. Dedicated to the preservation and education of the rich history of the fire fighting service, fire prevention education and fire safety, the Museum offers visitors the opportunity to view vintage fire engines and equipment and memorabilia dating back to the late 1600's. Visitors won't want to miss the 1909 Aerial ladder truck, the 1856 Howe Hand Drawn Pumper, the 1931 Light Truck used for search and rescue in the 1937 New London School Explosion and the Gamewell Call Box Alarm System used before there were telephones.

If you enjoy seeing the history of how a fire department shaped a community and how it has contributed to the community since the early 1900's the museum is a must see. It is also home of the world's largest fire hydrant, donated to the museum by Disney; it has Dalmatian spots. The Fire Museum of Texas in Beaumont, TX is a great family destination. Since admission is free, visit as often as you like.

Haunted St Louis Cemetery No 3 New Orleans

Formerly known as Bayou Cemetery, (where it is believed that those with leprosy were buried), New Orleans' St. Louis Cemetery No. 3 was created in 1848 on the high stretch of land known as the Esplanade Ridge.

Rich with history and lore, NOLA's above-ground cemeteries have been inspiration for storytellers and authors alike. They have gained a reputation for being haunted by ghosts for many reasons, including grave robbery, unmarked or forgotten burials, natural disasters that disturb resting places, or sometimes even because the deceased was not properly buried at all. Add all of that to the fact that graveyards are often dark, somber places and you've got the perfect setting for a ghost or two.

Walking through the Big Easy's St. Louis Cemetery No. 3 at night with only a flashlight can be a stirring experience for amateur ghost hunters. Voices have been heard throughout the cemetery and full body apparitions appear in camera shots. Come explore this haunted cemetery ... and don't forget to hold your breath as you drive by, or you might breathe in the spirit of someone who has recently died!

Shop New Orleans

New Orleans is filled with shopping options for nearly every taste and every budget.

The shops on the handful of streets that surround Bourbon Street have a lot of personality. Many of them are independently owned, selling everything from ultra-high priced art and estate furniture to clothing, with a healthy dose of souvenir and t-shirt shops thrown in, all selling more than enough New Orleans trinkets to bring home to your friends.

Bring plenty of cash to the Big Easy. Even when you're planning on keeping a low budget, you're going to find plenty of items that you just can't pass up.

Blue Front Door New Orleans

The first thing many people notice as you enter a home is the front door. A door is part of the face of a home. It's just a small part of the house but as an architectural element it says a lot about the times. This is especailly true of historic homes. Many times doors were almost works of art in their day. Now they are works of art!

A classic example of New Orleans architectural elements is shuttered doors. Shuttered doors allow the homeowner to let a breeze in, keep the sun out, and combat storm winds. Shuttered doors are found on many of NOLA's historical homes and buildings peppered throughout the French Quarter. The architectural elements found throughout The Big Easy are reason enough for a visit.

Today many old doors are restored to give that feel "hey I did not forget that I am an old home". If N'awlins' doors, walls, courtyards and streets could talk I would love to hear their conversation.
