the last trip for the fall...the albert county museum! its 15 mins for my house. ive wanted to visit but discovered the cost would be 40 for my family...i turned it into a school trip! i was able to book a tour with them for 5/kid!
i was impressed! this quiet little museum had so much history stuffed inside! we had a guide, she was engaging and informative. answered all my questions! and i had a few!
there are 7 buildings to explore in total! the bank, municipal house, the jail, court house, barn, tax house and information area
i tried to not take pics with ppls faces in them (insert eye roll) so my pics are boring. haha
the court house. i think its the best place for a wedding!
there was 2 floors and the kids were allowed to explore the whole building!
chamber room
press box
top view
the ceiling
the barn is on the left jail on the right
jail!
this fantastic mosaic!
and again, a beautiful fall day where the colors popped! the fundy river is in the back ground
the kids were given an activity to work on. while they worked on it in the court house with the guide, i was FREE for an hour to roam the property myself! that was the high light. so many amazing things to see and learn!
the hall, which can be rented. with the stage. what a cute place to put a show on!
we were there for 3.5 hours. if i was alone, i would have stayed longer. i took a 100 pics of all the things i found but i wont bore you with that. ha. i love history!
that was the last trip for awhile. we were away every day for a month! i over scheduled us but we had a lot of fun! we made a few new connections and had lots of play dates. im feeling socially tired so im pulling back on activities
oh! but i did join mom's club. we meet every tues morning. the kids are in a home school class and im free to be alone. that's literally the high light of my week. we will continue that for the year, as well as zoo camp. and possibly fridays at the y
but a part of me is longing so simplicity and quiet. to sit and enjoy. to walk the trails with my dog, coffee and meaningful conversations. theres something special about slowing down....
and look at that! im only 2 wks behind on the the blog! crossing fingers ill have a chance to blog more! the kids enjoy looking through the family blog!
