American Quilters Museum

 Carol started quilting about three years ago. I told her about the American Quilters Museum in Paducah, Kentucky. She expressed interest and I promised her that I would take her there. Its been about two years since I promised and every time we  planned to go something came up and we did not go. Driving home from the Black Hills seemed like a good time to stop in Paducah. We dedicated a day at  the museum and Hancock of Paducah, a very fine fabric store, which Carol really loved.

The museum does not allow any photography inside and we, of course, honored their rules. I did see one lady using her cell phone to take pictures.  Below are three picture of the outside of the museum.








Outside we saw a display of bronze statues honoring the Lewis and Clark Expedition.







A short walk from the museum and we were on the banks of the Ohio River. The picture does not show how quick the current was that day.


This was our last stop and we left the next day for home. We had a great trip. We both want to go back to stay in the cabin just to relax and read without all the driving to the sites. Well, maybe we would go back to the Mammoth Site and Custer State Park.
