H-Town Review: The Woodlands


The Woodlands is a suburb/city North of Houston. Many of the residents of this 55,000+ populated city have no reason to leave their hometown unless they are unfortunate enough to work outside the city limits.

The Woodlands has a plethora of retail shops (Wal-Mart to Pottery Barn to Anthropologie), restaurants (McDonald's to Grotto), a two story mall (with a Children's Museum inside), Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion (which showcases concerts featuring some of the hottest acts in the country), a waterway (you can hop a water taxi for a scenic view of the area), a hospital, hotels (designed especially for conferences), and top corporations like Anadarko, Hughes Christensen, & Hewitt Associates.

We spent Sunday afternoon in The Woodlands and let my son run through the water fountains at Market Square after having lunch at the Cheesecake Factory. Our trip to the Woodlands was about 50 minutes one-way but a great way to spend the afternoon. I highly recommend this excursion for visitors and hometown residents as well.
