Things To Do This Week.

Get The Jump On Your 12/2 – 12/8 Plans.

As you've probably figured out from the flood of pics inundating your social media apps or the most recent Reunion Tower display, that new Perot Museum of Nature and Science opened up this weekend.

We have to admit, it does look pretty killer.

Checking that sucker out will, no doubt, be on the top of most folks' to-do lists this week. But if you're waiting for the Perot crowds to die down a bit before braving that sucker, there are plenty of other goings on this week to keep yourself occupied.
