| Day 16 of 31 |
It's a cold, wet, snowy/rainy day in PA today. I didn't want to waste an entire Saturday, so I headed with the kids to the State Museum. This museum has a great little children's play area on the ground floor, a plantetarium on the 3rd floor and a whole lot of strange exhibits in between.
I don't know when the museum was built, but it was clearly in a different era because it has this enormous lobby with a grand ceiling and all I can think is how much energy is being used just to keep the museum open. Some of the exhibits are pretty timeless (duh, it's a museum) but the floor with the stuffed animals makes me feel as if I went through a time machine to the 1970's.
As we were leaving the museum (in the snow), the St. Patrick's Day parade was just getting ready to start. Somehow the combination of cold/wet weather and a typical St.Patrick's Day crowd was entirely unappaeling to me, so we hit the road.
So, spring is not here today and the forecast does not look good for tomorrow either, but hopefully soon.
I'm not one to complain about the winter weather, but the hail we had today was ridiculous! There's something about balls of ice falling from the sky that makes me shudder!
ReplyDeleteDid the kids have fun at the Curiosity Connection? That's one of our favorite places.
Stacey,
ReplyDeleteJ is at an age where he can play independently there, which is fantastic. I let A crawl around, so she had a great time, too. I got the bargain membership this year, so it has really paid for itself.
