This is a battleship state historic. I'm impress with the beautiful way in. Near the battleship museum is a San Jacinto museum of history

This tall building was designed by architect Alfred C. Finn. His design had the shaft of the Washington Memorial rising from the Lincoln Memorial and topped with the Lone Star of Texas.

Warm Love

From the past, the girl alway learned to embroider. The embroidery requires finesse and patience. As a kid, I was taught to embroidered the basic embroidery by my mother. Growing up, along with the industrial age, machines can do a lot of work and embroidery is one of them, so the drawing myself and embroidery have become more rare.


I draw the picture that I want to make

Wunderlich Farm

The farmhouse stands where it was first built in 1891 by Peter Wunderlich II, son of Peter Wunderlich who came to Texas from Germany in 1852. The Wunderlich House was occupied by the Wunderlich family until 1995, yet the house retains much of its earlier style. Its wooden walls have never been sheetrocked, wallpapered or painted. With its chicken house, smokehouse, barn, and other outbuildings remaining, the Farm exhibits life in Klein as it was in 1890-1920.

I write my name by the old pen











When members of the Wunderlich family visited Germany in 1985, Albrecht shared with his Texas relatives eleven German letters or documents from 1853-1882 about the earliest Texas Wunderlichs.




I signed my name in visitation book



This is the first time I visit a farm. Although they do not have any animal here, I was very excited. They virtually recreate the life of ancient farmers.
