Museum of American History (a Smithsonian museum)

We visited the Museum of American History museum in D.C. which is part of the Smithsonian.  It was very interesting, a part that I enjoyed showed a home that was built before the Revolutionary War and is still standing.  During recent renovations, they identified added-on parts to the house, old roofing material and wallpaper etc. and the exhibit showed rooms and construction material as it would have been used and appeared at various times throughout the house’s history.

The museum showed what life was like for Americans throughout the history of our country.

Jeff enjoyed the full-size train engine, and the model ships and that’s what he took pictures of.  Here are a few:
