Houston Museum of Natural Science: $8 for 2 Tickets (Museum District)

Click on this link to give me credit!

It looks like there are 4 packages available. The best deal is 2 passes to the butterfly exhibit for $8. That is the price that museum members get every day. So, if you aren't a museum member and want to go, now is the time to buy. I love the butterfly exhibit. It is worth going to by itself. They are also offering bundles with the civil war exhibit. It comes down to another $10 off.

ps. You can find b1g1s in the Entertainment for HMNS

Dan Phillips - Beyond the Box - Feb 21 at Rico's Grill on Sawdust

Sounds interesting and inspiring!

Dan Phillips - Beyond the Box 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Dan Phillips builds wildly creative, unconventional houses in Huntsville

for single parents, artists, and low-income families who otherwise

wouldn't be able to own a home. He uses only apprentice labor and

teaches marketable skills to anyone with a work ethic who is willing to

swing a hammer. By keeping labor costs low and using recycled,

donated, and salvaged building supplies, Phillips creates homes that are

truly affordable: $20,000 to $50,000 by his definition.

Phillips knows his small-scale housing ventures in Huntsville are not

enough to save the world. But they're an important start, a model for

others who want to build or remodel in a sustainable, affordable way, too.

Phillips is an engaging, entertaining, enthusiastic speaker who has been

featured internationally, from The New York Times and O magazine to the

Discovery Channel and HGTV.

 

He will share his perspectives on building "beyond the box" in The Woodlands

on February 21, 2012.

Networking - 6 p.m.

Talk - 7 p.m.
