Well, visiting Waco, we booked a tour to see the Cottonland Castle. I enjoyed Chip and Joanne Gaines series on Magnolia, where they remodeled it. It was fascinating, seeing everything in person and hearing our guide, walk us through all the details, answering tons of question along the way. I would absolutely recommend this tour. The money is will spent; all is donated to a nonprofit to support local children in need. Again way to go, Chip and Joanne 🙌🏼❤️
