This museum is dedicated to the history of the United States Postal Service.
Hats off to Mike for his dedication in creating this postal museum. It is a magnificient collection and Mike's enthusiasm during the tour is remarkable. We really enjoyed our time there, especially since my husband is a letter carrier. Although, I believe anyone would find this collection and the history very interesting and entertaining.

Critchlow Alligator Sanctuary is a reptile rescue facility that is open to the public. We are home to hundreds of reptiles who have come to us through adoption, donation, rescue, or from other institutions. We have worked with local and state authorities with animal control needs and we also work with schools and universities with educational programs and internships. No animals are bought, sold, or traded at the Alligator Sanctuary. We provide a comfortable home and care for these animals for the rest of their lives.
This was such a fun place to visit. We have been doing a lot of things outside during Covid and this was perfect. There were several staff members out mingling with visitors and they obviously love their jobs and the animals. It was fantastic seeing the alligator up close. The alligator show was really good. Who knew that alligators can do tricks and learn their names. Perfect for a half-day outing. Also, our daughter has a medical stroller and could see most of the animals easily.

This is one of the most popular of Marshall's many fine historic homes.
We visited Honolulu House today and had a wonderful experience! Our tour guide was knowledgeable and personable and the house is amazing. There are so many interesting features to see. Would highly recommend a visit.

This was a great visit. We took our grandkids ages 11 and 9, along with 5of their friends. Plenty to see. Plenty to do. Feed animals, ride a train, ride over to Africa exhibit on a tram. The Africa exhibit is large with free roaming animals. Feeding the giraffe of course was special. Price is in line with other attractions of this kind. We spent about 4 hours total, with lunch. Zoo is very clean and not so large that you can't work your way around.

The American Museum of Magic is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Its mission is to inspire and delight the public with the wonder of magic by documenting and celebrating the contributions and lives of magicians.
Historic, two story building that houses real props used by famous magicians. Lots of posters and bits of acts from years gone by. Highlight was seeing the actual custom milk can Houdini would get locked inside. Nothing here is "replica." (Previous to COVID, they had local people doing magic performances on Saturdays, but that is currently on hold.) We enjoyed looking at all the neat artifacts. Since most of the items cannot be handled, would not suggest taking young kids here. Recommend an hour or so to see most items.

Made a short stop on a hot Sunday afternoon. we had just finished lunch and it was good to stretch our legs and see this beautiful fountain. I imagine it's even more lovely when lit up at night.

This was my destination while on a fall color road trip. This was a photograph day and this park is an excellent place to get the camera out and walk around. I believe there are 5 historic bridges, including the one you drive under when entering the park. You climb up some stone steps to get to that one. There is also a tunnel, a creek that runs under most of the bridges, an interesting sculpture, a nice children's playground, picnic area, and boat launch area. You can also count the I-94 bridge over the river and the modern bridge at the boat launch if you'd like. There is also a wooden bridge you drive over at the edge of the parking lot. Lots of bridges! The fall color was peaking the day I was there and it made for some excellent pictures. Worth a stop, especially if you are into history.

What a cool market and greenhouse nursery. The produce section was outstanding. There is a huge walk in meat and dairy section, gourmet cheese section, pizza and sushi section, an entire flavored olive oil section, imported can goods, an outstanding coffee section where you can help yourself to a complementary cup of java, and a great bar if you want to shop and enjoy a craft beer while you shop! Great wine and craft beer section! There's a lot more too! You have to see this. What an amazing place!
