I’m a day or two late on my promise to post Veteran’s Day and Museum photos but here they are.
Day two of our trip to Hendersonville, NC consisted of a trip to the local museum, participating in the Veternan’s Day Celebration and looking at the Indian homes made by local 8th graders. And after all that a trip to the park.
It was fabulous! The day ended up being great and packed with learning. I will post more photos of the day tomorrow but this is mainly of the museum.
This is outside the museum when we first arrived and realized it was Veteran’s Day
Once inside there was this spectacular quilt sewn in memory of Hendersonville and it’s rich history.
I enjoyed looking through the museum even more than the kids did. They did find this particular artifact of particular interest though since the dice were SO small…
There was a section in the museum for each war. It was interesting to see the present war on terror and Desert Storm. I remember that very clearly. I’m imagining that for some Vietnam, WW 2 and others are just as real to them.
This one reminded me of my dad since he is such a great cartoonist…
The youngest two check out the plane…
There was a neat poster about the Hendersonville Veterans…
And finally what we had originally come to see….
The replicas of the early Indian homes. What a great job these kids did on the models they made.
Tomorrow more from our day.
Now, time for bed!
IN HIM,
