I've been super busy these past few days; new house shopping, my boyfriend was sick, and working a lot. Therefore, I have been slacking on posts and on the 30 Day Challenge. But, I wanted to post the pictures that I took at the Origins Museum that my boyfriend and I went to last weekend. It was a very interesting exhibit, especially being that it came to Wasilla. Supposedly, the guy who owns all of the materials actually is a proctologist in Wasilla, but the exhibit travels around the world.

Tomorrow I hope to get back to the 30 Day Challenge and I will also post the recipe of the week. Have a great Saturday. Peace.
Interesting! Awww you took a pic of early "Finlandia" for me - how sweet! They did a pretty good job with the maps considering the technology or lack thereof. Maybe they had more brains those days.
ReplyDeleteThat would have been a fascinating exhibit! Thanks for sharing all the pictures. Beautiful!
