Field Trip to Maryhill Museum

On Veteran's Day, we went on a field trip the Maryhill Museum in Goldendale, Wa. That is about 2 hours from our house. They have a whole floor designated to Native American artifacts. We have been studying the Native Americans for a couple of months and it was great to spend some time looking at actual things that they made.

There were a ton of peacocks roaming the grounds outside the museum. It was so great, you could just walk right up and take their picture. The girls of course decided to stay inside, while mom went out and took the pictures.

This is outside the museum. It is up on a hill above the Columbia River. These hills you see in the background are actually in Oregon. It was quite windy being near the river, so the girls were pretty cold.

They also had a "metal sculpture" area out on the grounds. It was a little too cold to spend too much time looking at them.
