American Wind Power Center - Lubbock, Texas
During our visit to Lubbock, the Two Old Buzzards visited this fascinating place (on a VERY windy day). This center has over 170 windmills, the largest collection in the United States, and they are expanding it. New addition to their building is planned.

Welcome to my travel vlog! This is an account of my american road trip, and I'm working through the Texas videos at present.
We went to the National Ranching Heritage Center in Lubbock, Texas and it was so cool! It's a historical park museum. It's like walking through history in chronological order. You start at the most primitive of houses (well, maybe not totally primitive, but really old), and work your way through architecture that describes how The West was won! You'll see the best in The West :) ha ha ha. Really though, it was so well done, and probably among the best museums I've been to in terms of the story telling and museum organization of the place. It is run by Texas Tech University. Here is their website:
We saw things like wells, kilns that looked like dog houses, cattle brands, old ranching houses that were transported there, barns, cattle traps, Indian territory houses that had special defences (Jowell House), and so much more. We saw a grocery store (the Waggoner Commissary) with an antique cash register and a can of pure lard. We saw a corral to trap cattle and an old school house that had heat capabilities it in! (It was Bairfield Schoolhouse). The big nice, Queen Anne style, two-bathroom house was a highlight, and it was under restoration while we were there. It was called Barton House. Oh wait, let's not forget the outhouse!
Sadly, we missed the cowboy. But we did see real old cowboy stuff from the Wild Wild West, like lassoo's and saddles and cowboy hats.
There were ranches, ranching equipment, horse taming areas (probably for mustangs), hay, horse carriages, a real train, and old beat up country truck, windmills, and pretty much everything except real animals and time travel abilities :) But there were jack rabbits!
I got to go with my friends and some very cute babies. One of them even gave me a fun time pretending she was at a rodeo!

Planning the perfect meeting in Lubbock, Texas
Sammy, a meeting and event planner, sends a video postcard to her friend Ted about Lubbock, Texas, which will be hosting her company's annual conference. While doing her site visit, she discovers all of the big-city amenities, small-town charm and surprising perks that make Lubbock a perfect destination for corporate, association, social, military and religious groups. Created for Visit Lubbock. For more information, go to
Here's a transcript of the video:
Dear Ted,
I just finished my site tour in Lubbock, Texas and I had to tell you about it. Remember last year's convention, where we spent most of our time on shuttles? Well, not this year. Getting around is so quick and easy in Lubbock. In fact I think a lot of things are going to be easier here.
Everyone is so friendly and makes you feel so welcome, everywhere you go. I think that will really play well with my association — and with that church group you're working with. Actually, they have one of the best and most affordable golf courses in the US. I know you need to look out for that executive retreat you're planning, in terms of budget and perception, so you may want to look at Lubbock for that too.
My association meeting is about 250 to 300 people, so I was thinking about using the Overton Hotel & Conference Center as our host hotel. It's the only Four Diamond hotel in West Texas, and we could all meet under one roof. But there are a lot of other options for overflow or for smaller groups like the Holiday Inn Hotel & Towers, Holiday Inn Park Plaza, LaQuinta, Embassy Suites and Hawthorne Suites.
For our opening reception, I was thinking of using the Silent Wings Museum. Most of the World War II glider pilots were trained there. The CVB knew a great swing band I could use. In fact, there were so many musical resources and music-themed venues here that I'm going make that a major part of this meeting.
There's the Buddy Holly Center and the West Texas Walk of Fame. You can get group tickets to see shows at Moonlight Musicals or the Cactus Theatre, and most of it is located in the Historic Depot Entertainment District. I was thinking of doing a progressive event though there one evening. I really want my group to sample the variety of sights, sounds and tastes Lubbock has to offer. Because this small town has so many big city amenities!
In fact, I just assumed that most of their events were in the 250 to 450-person range. I had no idea they do up to 11,000-person meetings. Then I remembered the United Spirit Arena on the Texas Tech campus, which seats 15,000 people, and they also have the weather — and the plazas — to do large outdoor events as well.
I checked out the Lubbock Memorial Civic Center for you. I think you'll like it a lot. Their 40,000-sq. ft. exhibit hall is column-free, which I knew you'd love. And they also have a 1,400-seat theater and 14,000-sq. ft. banquet hall.
I also thought you'd like the American Wind Power Center, home to the largest windmill museum in the world, — you can take your groups there to learn about renewable energy, and they also have meeting and event space.
Hey, did you know that Texas Tech has amazing speakers? The CVB is going to help me secure a couple. Oh! And they have a place where you can go and watch prairie dogs. It's called Prairie Dog Town — I love them. I think I'm going to have to fit that in somewhere — maybe for a spousal or family tour.
For our closing night reception, I'm going to book the Cap Rock Winery. It's housed in a beautiful Spanish Mission-style building and features event space perfect for groups both big and small. There's actually a total of 5 wineries around Lubbock, all of which offer tours and tastings.
The CVB is really taking great care of me. They're hooking me up with welcome bags and programs, on-site registration and tours, signage, name badges, press releases for local media and I think the Mayor is going to come and welcome our group. How cool is that?
Well Ted, I'd love to tell you more, but I have to sign off so I can enjoy this amazing sunset at a Lubbock hot spot called The Roof. I may have to figure out how to bring people here too.
OK, see you soon. Hopefully next spring in Lubbock!
Your friend, Sammy.
