Oct 14 2011

I got rained out today so decided to head up to
the Adirondack Museum for the day...I found out
it was closing this weekend so this worked out
perfect...There were way too many pictures so I
have only put about a third of them up...

Looking across Lake George...























A women from Texas has been here 8 years building
canoes by hand...It takes her about 2 summers to build
one canoe...
















A comparison of 3 types of canoes...The birch
bark one weighs only 47 lbs where the middle
dugout canoe weighs over 150 lbs...The other
was too rotted to give a true weight.

















A one room schoolhouse.
















This was in the schoolhouse...Notice anything
wrong?





























































A cool coat rack.















































A sign oh where my parents grew up.
















This is a section of a blister from a birch tree. It
weighed over 2 tons and was over 6 feet tall.




























































An over 250 year old tree. My cell phone
in the middle to compare.
















Horse drawn snow plow and snow roller.































This was a picture of a lake full of logs.


































































Over looking Blue Mountain Lake.
