In our Own Backyard



This hapless fellow was found on a recent excursion to a wonderful museum in the capital city of Montpelier. The museum is operated by the Vermont Historical Society and is featuring an exhibit called Freedom and Unity the state motto.



I'm always amazed by the wonderful displays of Revolutionary War memorabilia.




And Civil War. Of course, I loved the old signature quilt. I didn't realize I had my flash on so pardon the glare. This quilt had Bible verses and get well wishes written on the light parts. The bullet in the shoe was so interesting to contemplate.
And here's a couple of other old relics.
