This Building is the Historic Train Station -- Not being used currently -- a young lady told me that they used to sell tickets there - but it has been closed

As we sat a restin in the shade - two park service rangers came up to chat - This is Dwane and Sam

Picture

Sam was a hoot to talk to - and he went even further - gave us a one on one tour of the museum.  Shared things with us that we would not have known otherwise.  What a treat!

for instance - did you know that the three elements of the united states displayed in the Statue of Liberty are displayed in her torch.  Corn - Tobacco - and the Indian arrowhead

an exact replica of the Statue of Liberty's Face

and a replica of her foot - which Kelsey found very comfortable as a seat :)
