My husband and I had an unexpected layover in Amarillo and decided to go to the QH Museum. If you grew up on a farm, enjoy horses or are just a person who enjoys horses, don’t miss this museum. It is very interesting and weaves social happenings and stories of different eras with what was happening with Quarter horses. It was worth the 2 hours we spent. We could have stayed longer. Great interactive things to learn for children who are interested in a career with horses.
