Dawson Creek History Museum -- British Columbia

I didn't mention this place in our plans for visiting Dawon Creek...but it was worth seeing. We spent quite alot of time studying the stuffed birds, trying to figure out which ones we had already seen. Aren't these owls cool?!
Anna wanted Bitty's (her unicorn) picture taken with the wolf.

Randy and I found the early snowmobile fascinating---especially since it was built by teen boys PLUS they have been given no credit for inventing the snowmobile, even though theirs was closer to today's style than the one usually credited as being first. They added a motor and a track to their old wooden kick sled.

I liked the working model plane. It reminded me of the big yellow one my dad had when I was a kid---and of the little red line-controlled one I made and flew with my dad. I had forgotten about those happy memories!
