National Museum Day

That's right folks today is National Museum Day. To celebrate we packed up and visited our local heritage museum; which was free today:) As a life long learner I have taken my children to museums from the very beginning. I am pleased that this has fostered a deep love for them. Today's museum housed social and cultural pieces that spanned the last 700 years. The children we especially fascinated with the leeches and blood letting exhibit. I was inspired and awed by the quilts and fiber arts the museum exhibited.  Here are a few pics from our journey back in time.





What is you favorite museum to visit?
