Show Low History Museum

While my sister and her family were in town, they wanted to go check out the Show Low History Museum and invited us to go along with them.  In all these years of living here, we have never gone.  It was actually really fun.  There were a lot of things that people donated like organs, quilts, old stoves and fireplaces.  Just so many things that make up Show Low.  There was a room about the Rodeo-Chediski fire, and a room just for the trains.  They set up as much of the railroad towns as they could but unfortunately the trains were not running that day.  In the main room, they had an old phone switchboard that they used for the county a long time ago which I thought was pretty awesome.  Back in the corner though, they had an old single jail cell that Kayton thought was fun to get stuck in there.
The boys loved it and it's more fun if you get to go with your cousins.   

This list was a really fun find.  It's a list of people who served in Vietnam war from Show Low and while we were reading it, we found Nate's Dad, Barney Adams.  We have a few pictures of him in this army uniform and the flag from his funeral in our house so it was really fun to see someone else honoring him.

 

After the museum, we got to have lunch together and just go play at our house.  We love the Howden family!
