Performing Arts / Entertainment
If visting between April and November, check out Miller Outdoor Theater for free shows. They have regular seats, but it's more fun to grab an old blanket (Let us know if you need one) and sit on the hill.
Tip: You can bring your own concessions, including alcoholic beverages, but no glass.

Avoid rush hour traffic and have a more enjoyable trip.
During weekdays there is significant traffic going into central Houston from 7-9 and out of Houston from 4:30-7. Avoid driving during these peak hours and have a much more relaxing trip.
