For the past two weeks, we have been battling some kind of a virus or strep throat in the house. I am hoping it is finally on it's last leg and on the way out of our home. Melanie (my MIL) arrived in Denver last Sunday evening and we didn't even get out of the house until Thursday.
On Thursday we took the kids to the Loveland Museum downtown. It was a very nice outing. There are childrens' art pieces from the R2-J school district on exhibit through the end of March. There is an area that describes beat farming and when the beat and sugar factories were in operation. Another section has a facsimile to the first jail room in Loveland and different stores, etc. set up how "it must have been back when".
There is an area upstairs with a topical map of Larimer County. There is another area upstairs dedicated to all the Miss Lovelands and the Valentine re-mailing program. They even have the stamps and scrap paper out to stamp the cancel verses from each year (unless they are missing) since the program started.
All four boys, Melanie, and I really enjoyed the time spent here.
