While we were in Colorado, we had the opportunity to visit an old mining town. They call it a museum, but South Park City is one of the few museums that you can take your kids to and let them touch and climb and explore.
34 authentic buildings are filled with over 60,000 artifacts that portray most of the economic and social aspects of boomtown life. Seven of the buildings are on their original sites; the others have been moved from abandoned camps and ghost towns in the area. It was a fascinating, fun way to spend a few hours.

Historical museums are one of our favorite family activities. Ghost towns are so cool. How neat that you can actually touch and use those items. How fun!
I love the last picture. The colors are so lovely together.
Thanks for visiting and your kind comments. :)
