This museum is dedicated to displaying the artifacts found when the Steamship Arabia was uncovered from its grave in a Kansas cornfield. The ship had sunk in 1856
This week we went to Mammoth Cave National Park. It was cool with the… wetness and the… people and the… smells and the lovely not air conditioning that felt like air conditioning. It was 90 🥵 something outside and it felt amazing to go into the the caves and to make it worse we had
