A visit to the History Museum


Today was rainy so the kids and I went to the History Museum. It was, in my daughter's words, "Great!" They had a lot of fun exploring and finding out new things about our town. This is a photograph of Ignatius Petoskey and his Native American headdress and moccasins. It is very intricate in its beading and feathers and it quite beautiful.

One wing of the museum is about the early days of Petoskey and the other wing is about the Victorian age in Petoskey. I think the kids liked the Victorian side the most as there was a working telegraph code machine they could practice on. A very nice place to visit!!
