Well, if you looking for a short hop from Texas, why not the USS Alabama & USS Drum in Mobile, Alabama? http://www.ussalabama.com/ Looks like you could easily spend the day there. If it is not that long a drive from where you are in Texas(BIG state, yeah I know), road trip and stop at Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and visit the USS Kidd. http://www.usskidd.com/

Decisions, decisions, decisions....
Takao you have been (not to put down anyone else, all of the answers I looked over and did a quick google search on if a link was not provided. I found all of them helpful) the hands down most useful person to reply. Like I said I'm not trying to be rude to the others who took the time to respond but you nailed it spot on. I actually live closer to Mexico than I do the east border of Texas, which isn't saying much considering I live practically in the dead center of the state, so I should be able to take that detour to see the Kidd. Thank you very much, you have just made my vacation. I also have never been to Alabama or any other southern state really, so I look forward to that. Have a Merry Christmas.
