Fun in Minneapolis, MN



We had a great time going to museums in Minneapolis this past weekend. These first few pictures are from the Minnesota History Center.
They had an awesome George Washington exhibit that is there temporarily. We got to see the last surviving full set of his dentures!

We had fun at the MN sculpture garden after church! It was such a beautiful day!


The last two pictures are from the Mill City Museum. We learned why Minneapolis is where it is. The river and St. Anthony's Falls provided power for everything from sawmills to flour mills.
We learned that water equals power!
Here the kids are sorting logs at the saw mill to make sure that they get to the right lumber yard.

We are off to Chicago to see more museums this week! See you on Monday.
