Helps identify with fellow people that live,laughed and loved in a whole different time of technological or worldly knowledge we had then. For me, I was able to grasp and hold a grateful attitude for what we have in forms of blessings, and tools, to do the day to day purpose of living a helpful, tolerant, & loving way of thriving in today's society."

We followed the tour guide to a nearby wind turbine after watching a short film on how they are constructed. Only authorized personnel are allowed in the turbine, but it was still nice to get right up next to such a massive machine. On the way back we stopped by city hall to look at a retired blade on outdoor display. The museum features displays from tools to toys, military memorabilia and all sorts of artifacts from daily life of Americans from the 19th and early 20th century. My kids enjoyed looking for objects on the scavenger hunt. The facilities are clean and well organized. The volunteer staff did an excellent job hosting our visit and answering our questions. We were impressed that many of the objects on displays can be touched, which is great for curious kids and adults! Due to poor weather we didn’t spend much time at the outdoor exhibits, but those looked nice as well."
