Day Trip to Odessa ☄️ (FULL EPISODE) S10 E10
This modern-day Boomtown isn't just a town for roughnecks and wildcatters -- it's for trippers too! Visit this West Texas town and you might just strike black gold!
For a breakfast that checks all the boxes on your foodie list, go to Dumplin’s Y Amigos. Just like the name suggests, whether you’re craving down home country cooking or a nice big plate of Mexican huevos — they make both deliciously. Oh…and did I mention they serve chips and salsa all day long??
This food truck-turned-restaurant has some of the funkiest foods you’ve ever tasted. Whether you order a heaping basket of “Buffalo Fries” or a “Homer Simpson” slider piled high with mac-n-cheese and bacon, your tastebuds are definitley going to be thanking you. Don’t skimp on dessert — they’ve got “Funfetti Fritters” which are cakeballs smothered in icing.
All around town, you’ll find tons of artsy jackrabbits (like Jack Ben Rabbit) commemorating Odessa’s long history of jackrabbit roping — seriously! It used to be a featured event at the Odessa Rodeo, but now these not-so-little guys are all that remain of that odd tradition.
If you’re a huge fan of Texas high school football, then catching a highschool football game between the Permian Panthers and Odessa Broncos is a must. The popular book and TV show, “Friday Night Lights” were based off of this very town.
Sixty-three thousand years ago, a giant crater crashed into the earth, leaving a huge hole in Odessa and plenty of intergalactic mystery. This crater has been slowly filled in with West Texas dirt and wind, but the interesting history behind it remains. It’s just waiting for you to uncover the truth at this museum.
Forget hopping the pond to see this intriuging European structure; UT Permian Basin has a replica Stonehenge that’s almost as big and just as cool to see!
Unfortunately, the Presidential Archives have closed since filming.
To trip or to trip…that is the question. Well, it should only be a question when you’re visiting this replica of Shakespear’s Globe in London. This theatre is the most authentic replica in the states — and is home to some pretty awesome productions.

Day Trip to Nacogdoches ???? (FULL EPISODE) S4 E8
THROWBACK EPISODE - This episode originally aired on PBS in October 2014 as part of Season 5. Some of the locations may have changed. Check for the most up-to-date information.
Nacogdoches may be the oldest city in Texas, but that doesn’t mean it feels old and crusty. Modern “Nac” is full of youthful energy pouring in from Stephen F. Austin University, and you’ll discover much more than history in this historic town.
If you want to dive right into the history of this town, start off at the Stone Fort Museum. This museum is a recreation of the first permanent structure in Nacogdoches built by the town’s founder Antonio Gil Y’Barbo in the 1700s.
Next, pop over to the Nacogdoches Visitor’s Center to learn about the “9 flags of Nacogdoches.” (Yes, this town tops the State of Texas by 3 whole flags). While they’ve got the 6 flags of Texas — Spain, France, the Republic of Texas, the American Flag, Mexico and the Confederate of Texas — Nacogdoches also has three others… stop by the Visitor’s Center to find out where from!
Since Nacogdoches is the oldest town in Texas, you better believe that it’s filled with all sorts of historic buildings and museums where you can step back in time and experience the history of town for yourself. Visit the Sterne-Hoya House Museum and Library, an 1830s house owned by a Texas Revolution leader, Durst-Taylor Historic House and Gardens, an 1835 house that is the second oldest building in town and the old University Building known as the “mother of education in Texas.”
If you really want to experience the good old days in Nac, head to Millard’s Crossing for some hands-on learning. This reconstructed historic village is full of structures from the 1800s and 1900s where you can see first-hand what life was like in those days. You’ll never be more thankful for your home’s washing machine…
When you get hungry, I recommend a 14 oz. “Cowboy Steak” from CC’s Smokehouse, about half of an inch thick and cooked on the flat top grill. It’s the kind of down-home restaurant and good eats you’d expect to find in this historic town. You’ll love it.
For dinner, the best place in town is Hotel Fredonia, but don’t be fooled, the food at this hotel isn’t just for weary travelers — this is the local hang out and a great place to unwind after a long day of trippin’.
If you’re looking to get outside into nature, take casual stroll through the Stephen F. Austin University campus to see the Garden Arboretum. The garden is amazing year-round, but it’s especially beautiful in Spring when the azaleas bloom.
Sadly, Zip Nac has permanently closed since we filmed this episode.

Key West is the southern terminus of U.S. Route 1, State Road A1A, the East Coast Greenway and, before 1935, the Florida East Coast Railway. Key West is a port of call for many passenger cruise ships.

MAP OF LUFKIN [ TEXAS ]
Lufkin is the largest city in Angelina County, Texas and the county seat. The city is situated in Deep East Texas and about 60 miles west of the Texas-Louisiana border. Its estimated population is 35,021 as of July 1, 2019.
Lufkin was founded in 1884 and named for Abraham P. Lufkin. It originally served as a stop on the Houston, East and West Texas Railway. It was officially incorporated on October 15, 1890. Lufkin continued to serve as a stop on the railroad until 1890. Three businessmen founded Angelina Lumber Company, which led to much of the economic prosperity Lufkin later had. When the so-called timber boom came to an end, a new golden era of expansion began. Lufkin became more industrialized with the opening of Lufkin Industries and Southland Paper Mill. In the mid-1960s, a cultural expansion began, and improvements were made to education and the way of life, including museums and the opening of a new library.
The City of Lufkin has a council–manager government, with 6 city council members, a mayor, and a city manager. The Lufkin Independent School District encompasses most of Lufkin and operates almost all of the schools within Lufkin. Additionally, Angelina College, a community college, is located in Lufkin. Lufkin is home to Lufkin Industries and Lufkin Gears LLC, which manufactures and services oil field equipment and power transmission equipment, and supplies of creosote-treated utility poles. It is also home to the Atkinson Candy Company, the creator of the Chick-O-Stick, and Brookshire Brothers, a chain of grocery stores in Texas and Louisiana. Lufkin received Texas's first biomass power plant in late 2009. Aspen Power is building the power plant.
Some of the city's major employers include:
Angelina College, community college with enrollment of 5,000
Atkinson Candy Company, founded and headquartered in Lufkin
Brookshire Brothers, a regional grocery company founded and headquartered in Lufkin
Lufkin Industries, founded and headquartered in Lufkin, oil pumping manufacturer
Lufkin Gears LLC, founded and headquartered in Lufkin, power transmission equipment manufacturer
Lufkin Independent School District
Pilgrim's, poultry processor that employs more than 1,500 people
Stephen F. Austin State University, state university (located in Nacogdoches; some employees reside in Lufkin)
Temple-Inland is Fortune 500 company that produces paper, wood, and other related products. Headquartered in Diboll, 15 miles (24 km) south of Lufkin, it has employment in Lufkin, as well. Temple-Inland was sold to International Paper.
According to the city's 2019 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, the top employers in the city are:
# Employer # of Employees Percentage of Total City Employment
