While staying at Driftwood Provincial Park, we drove to Deep River, maybe a 20 minute drive. We stopped at the School House Museum and spent about 2 hours there. I love places like this, so much nostalgia. And I love how they say antiques when I still have at home, or remember my parents having, some of these items! lol
The school house was a museum and there were other buildings and exhibits outside This made me laugh and no not a joke This was a cute little cabin Inside the cabin Out back of the school house
We also went to the Clock Museum. Yeah I know right? Sounds kinda boring. Well I’m here to tell you that it was not, we were probably there 2 hours or more. The place was amazing and we were the only ones there so the owner took us on a private tour of the place and shared so much information. It was well worth the visit.
Clock Museum Interesting place and story This was great, I actually have a recording of this playing and it’s beautifully painted So many clocks ! I remember some of these We had a clock similiar to this style when I was growing up
So my next post on Driftwood Provincial Park will focus on a day trip we took to see the Brent Crater.
Until then…..
I love the clock museum! So interesting. ❤️ The sewing machine instructions are funny, they thought differently back then. ☺️

We will have to check them out when we are your way again. I don’t think we did any museums when we were there in 2019

I recommend Tombstone and Old Tucson, and there are others up north. Prescott is worth a trip!

This entire blog post looks like a lot of fun to visit these places. I also never know whether to b amused or offended when things are passed off as antique and I clearly remember them, in fact I did a Wordless Wednesday post a few years ago on my birthday saying just that. An antiques store opened and I looked in the window – “antiques” and things I had played with or some still in the house. How quaint this little store is – love it! I am going to send you a separate comment about a video of a moose shedding its antlers. I saw it on Twitter, but searched for it and found even more about this viral video shot by a drone and follow-up by the photographer. I will put it in a separate comment so it doesn’t go to SPAM.

I love visiting old school house buildings. We have places that they made into a small town like a broom making, weaver, candles etc. Then they perform the art in each of the buildings. The clock museum had a lot of clocks! Thank you for sharing your pictures❣️
