Hawk Museum

In July the Hawk Museum has a big gathering that everyone in the neighboring towns comes to. It is a pretty good time. They have a parade of all the old tractors, old fashion foods, and all kind of people selling their homemade goods. On the 22nd we went out there for another event, the fall music. We got there too late in the day though to really get in on the music, so we just took a tour of the museum again! They have several buildings full of old machinery!
This is the "general store" known for it's sausage!
Corbin got to play school! (There were some ladies that were touring the school house at the same time that said they remember bringing a potato for lunch that they would place on top of the furnace to bake it.)
Corbin found his seat in the school.
Before we left we say the sawmill was going...so we took the tractor over there and watched. It is pretty neat! The blade is enormous! And it is run by a stream tractor. It was really fun to see, but really loud!

We went there, too. We bought our dinner bell from the blacksmith. I love it because I never have to holler for supper anymore. Everyone knows what the bell means and comes running.
