The Salt Palace Museum has a new look since the earlier photo shown. They've added some covered outdoor areas -- one for picnic tables and one for their big hunk of salt.

Salt Palace

I saw the Salt Palace on the Food Network and found it intriguing. As I was traveling to Fort Worth, I decided to make a detour. It really is a neat building, constructed with chunks of rock salt. The video is quite interesting. Like most people, I knew nothing about salt mining. Morton Salt operates the mine and is the largest employer in Grand Saline.
