I think sometimes those of us that live in Lubbock either forget, or just don't realize what a cool place the Ranching Heritage Center of Texas Tech is-especially how awesome their holiday programs can be.

For those of you who have never been to the Ranching Heritage Center it is a museum with actual houses moved to the site from various locations (places that date back to 1700's).

That in itself is pretty cool, but at Christmas they decorate a lot of the buildings in "period" fashion and have people dressed in period costumes doing activities that might have taken place during that time period.

I know it sounds a little nerdy but guys, suggest to your girl that y'all go check then bundle up, walk around and check out the sights, have a cup of hot chocolate, write a letter to Santa (be sure to include the crap women like to hear) get a bag of hot kettle corn and then thank your lucky stars that you didn't live back in the days before heat, indoor plumbing and cable TV.

The year's candle light event will take place December 9th and 10th from 6:00 p..m to 9:00 p.m.
