Seward County Historical Museum |
When we arrived we found out that we were behind three groups of school children that would be taking the tour so we had to wait about an hour to get one ourselves. We could have taken a tour with the last set of school children but we decided the 15 minutes of wait time might be worth it so we could hear what was being said. In the meantime we walked around the Seward County Historical Museum and took in all the exhibits. I found some old postcards in one of the cases from Liberal that were just too cute!
We also stopped in the Gift Shop and bought a book on Dorothy's trip to OZ and a sticker book for Addi's birthday. Of course, we had to send the youngest three grandchildren postcards too!

Sage brush inside the museum - we actually saw a lot of this blowing around as we drove through Kansas! We also saw a road runner. We thought we were too far north for both but we were wrong!
