If you're coming to Dallas area you really want to consider going to the 6th Floor Museum at Dealey (sometimes misspelled as Deally or Dealy) Plaza at the Texas Schoolbook Depository on Elm Street in downtown Dallas.
Tickets are very reasonably priced, between $12 for youth and $18 for adult per person. I really don't recommend this for a child under 10 due to the subject matter. They have an audio-guide device / headphones tour that was part of our tickets that is really informative.
Parking is onsite, we paid $12, tickets are time-slotted for a 30 minute window but on a busy day of you don't pre-purchase you run the risk of not getting in. So you buy a ticket that gets you entry between 4:00 and 4:30 PM, that way they have the ability to slow the flow as you need a few minutes at each station.
Brought my brother here. Still a somber place. I'll post more later.
This photo is one window away from Oswald's sniper's nest. Pretty crazy, the road layout is the same as it was in 1963.
Turning to my left, it's the actual window that Oswald shot from with the same floor and recreation boxes.
