Bess Streeter Aldrich House & Museum

The renovations to the original wood floors at the Bess Streeter Aldrich house are complete and gorgeous. My phone photos didn't turn out too good due to the bright sunshine and glare on the floor. So I'll go back this weekend and get some really good one of the floor. That means you just have to come back and read this next week.

But in addition, the theme for this month is Musical Instruments and sheet music.

I do love musical instruments and the sheet music display at the top of the staircase of military sheet music is fascinating.

There is always something new to see and learn.

A hint of a new feature to the museum. Bess Streeter Aldrich will return in reenactment style, very much like Maxine Cline did many years ago. I'll update you later on who and when you can experience this new guided tour. Let's just say the person is delving not only into the personal life of Ms. Aldrich but also the local history and the time period.
