After stepping out of the museum, I headed to the Heritage House. I had been inside of it before, but it's one of my favorite parts of the museum. I walked up to the doorway that was guarded by two lions. Once I entered the house, I took pictures of the rooms. I thought the wallpaper was really pretty. I just love old houses. They have such character and are mysterious. You don't get that with a new house. I also noticed around the rooms there were nativities. These were from the nativity collection. You can check out my blog post here that I wrote about the nativity collection being held there. I didn't realize how many the collector had - they were all over in the lower rooms. It was fun to spot them as I proceeded forward on my journey. Because it was Christmastime, there were a few decorations, as well. It gave the old house a festive look - which was a lovely addition.
When I stepped up the stairs, I was welcomed by some old dolls and toys. There was an old bathroom near the stairs that was next to a bedroom. It all seemed mysterious and stuck in time. I wondered what memories were created here, and the people that inhabited it. I quietly stepped into the first bedroom, trying not to disturb anything. It was like being back in time, and I enjoyed that feeling. If you haven't been to this museum, be sure to check out the Heritage House. It's pretty cool. As I wandered around the room, I spotted some dresses, hats, and furniture. I admired it all, but I especially liked the lamp on the ceiling. There was also a second bedroom that was closed off to the public, but you can still gaze into it. The first bedroom allows you to walk along and take it in all up close. You know, I suppose it was a simpler time back then. How I wish I could go back to those days.
Leaving the bedroom at the top of the stairs, I walked through the lower rooms and out the door. There were a few things to see outside, before I made it into a building where the nativity showcase was being held. The outside will be in next week's blog post on Monday - it's the last leg of my journey. I wish more people were interested in museums and old buildings. We must preserve the past so that we can better understand the future. That's how I see it, anyways. So, be sure to visit the museum soon. The nativity showcase will not be there at this time, but there's still many wonderful things to look at. I hope you liked today's post. Be sure to visit the museum's website here. See you next week, wanderers.

Looking around, I noticed they had old appliances and furniture in every room. It was fascinating to explore everything. I mentioned before, but I really like old things, like antiques, too. I haven't been antiquing in a long time, but I hope to do so soon (this inspired me). I don't necessarily have any room for antiques in my place, but a few items would fit, I'm sure. On another adventure, I'd like to check out some antique stores. Watch out for it! But I digress, I found so many treasures hiding, or in plain sight within the house. Each piece had a specific purpose. I found an old stove, dishes, pans, utensils, and more. I didn't remember much from my last visit, but I did remember a piano, and the upstairs rooms. I walked into another room and spotted a typewriter. I have one that my Mom gave to me when she had it as a young woman! I then admired their piano in that room.
