This saw was painted by prisoners and all of the pictures are from the viewpoint of inside the prison.
The Prison Museum that is. I had planned on visiting Sam Houston’s home, but it was closed for the day. Instead we visited Daddy’s choice. It ended up being really fun and interesting. I learned the state prison system was self supporting until only recently. In fact, they contributed back to the state budget each year. Interesting. The kids really enjoyed it. We are actually planning a second trip back to Huntsville to visit other museum. There is so much to see. We visited the prison cemetery. The kids wanted to eat lunch there, but I drew the line there! So we went to Sam Houston’s home and had a picnic there. It was a beautiful day and we really enjoyed the time together.
