Museum-September 10, 2011

We went through the Jim Gatchell Memorial Museum today, in downtown Buffalo. It was extremely interesting. Mr. Gatchell was a founding father of this city. He was also a pharmacist. Someone in that museum has done an incredible amount of work putting all of those displays together. They started out with just a few artifacts and it has grown to over 10,000 pieces of fascinating history. I will have to admit that the history of this area is just as interesting as the history of Colorado. Those early pioneers were hardier people than any of us. Neither of us is normally very fond of going through local museums, but we are glad we went through this one. It was very informative. We both feel a real attachment to this little city for some reason. We think it could become our permanent residence aka our garage address. However, we have to do much research before making that decision. We decided early this morning to stay at least one more day. And since tomorrow is Sunday we will use it as a day of rest. I hope you can do the same.
