Day Trip to Midland 🛢 (FULL EPISODE) S10 E9

Published

June 25, 2023

SUMMARY: This content is about Midland, Texas, located in the Permian Basin, one of the richest oil and gas deposits in the world. Midland experienced an oil boom in the 1920s and became an economic driver for Texas. The content explores various aspects of Midland, including the Permian Basin Petroleum Museum, the childhood home of George W. Bush, a Mediterranean restaurant owned by Iraqi immigrants, a candy shop, the I-20 Wildlife Preserve, and the Midland Beer Garden. It emphasizes the coexistence of industry and nature in Midland and the community-oriented atmosphere of the beer garden.

Midland is more than just wide open spaces and an endless sea of natural resources, it’s a beacon that stands tall as the Texas spirit. Spend a day here and you’ll find it’s also flowing with endless adventures.

Inside the Petroleum Museum, you’ll find amazing interactive displays about the history of oil in the Permian Basin — you’ll even see the Chapparral Race Car, which forever changed both the racing and auto industries. Outside is the largest collection of drilling rigs in the world.

Tour this little house that was home to some BIG Texas personalities: two presidents, two governors and a first lady. Check out George W. Bush’s childhood room in the early 1950s…and you can even see the Bush’s bushes.

At Heroes Meals, you’re guaranteed a meal you won’t find anywhere else in Midland — or West Texas for that matter. Homemade Iraqi food is served up with hand-mixed teas, making for one flavorful meal. If you’re not sure where to start, I suggest the combo shawarma and Jamaican tea with fresh pineapple and ginger.

Sweeten up your day trip with a stop at Susie’s. What started as a small pecan grove on the south forty acres of a friend’s ranch, became home to Susie’s homemade toffee and famous Texas Trash ,a tasty mixture of white chocolate, cereal, pecans and pretzels.

After a long day, grab a cold one at this greenhouse-turned-beer garden. When hunger strikes, you can get some grub at the food trailer onsite. A ground brisket burger and homemade jalapeno poppers with “angry mayo” are the way to go.

Sandwiched between the derricks and Interstate 20 is one of Midland’s best kept secrets — a natural wetland teeming with birds and plant life. This 100-acre wild space is an awesome place to spend the afternoon getting lost.

As it has the last few seasons, the Texas Longhorns recruiting class ranks outside of the Top 10 at the end of July, going into August. Steve Sarkisian has repeatedly told us that he does not worry about recruiting this early, and tells reporters to check back in with him in December. That cool demeanor obviously comes for good reason, because he knows he has no reason to panic. The latest example, Top 150 recruit Josiah Sharma who had been previously committed to Oregon, just flipped to the University of Texas. As always, expect more to come. #HookEm

In the modern era of Texas Longhorns Football Team quarterbacks, only four players really make sense to include on a “Mt. Rushmore”.
