First off, congrats on retiring!

I agree with above if you haven’t done KSC in Florida, I’d prioritize that first. Besides the swimming pool I don’t think Houston has anything that KSC doesn’t have better.
Heck I’d do the Dulles Air and space museum, Smithsonian, and Ohio’s air and space museum in Dayton before I made a special trip to Houston for Johnson’s Space Center. I grew up around KSC, their visitor center is top notch, what they have at Johnson is smaller and seemingly needing more repair.

Feb through April is a fantastic time to be here, or wait till late October/November.

If you come in early March we have the Houston Rodeo running for 3 weeks.
We have some excellent museums in our museum district including the most expensive dinosaur collection in the world if I’m not mistaken.

If you’re jut looking to just hit up Johnson, fly into Hobby, and stay in that area or down towards Galveston, you may be able to avoid coming into Houston all together. If you do need to come into Houston, avoid rush hour.

Best of luck!
