After a hearty breakfast the entire troupe Master Teachers and Graduate students set out for our visits to two of the best museums in the area. Our first stop was The Wild Center in Tupper Lake where we saw many exhibits and live animals. It's great to go there each year because there is always something new and this year they had replaced some of the technology-based exhibits in the center core of the museum with an art exhibit It's great to see how some artists can capture even the finest details nature's beauty here in the Adirondacks.
Our second stop after a delicious bag lunch was The Adirondack Museum at Blue Mountain. The cultural history of the region is fascinating and a visit to this museum always reminds one of how tough those early settlers in the region had to be to survive the rigors of nature and climate.
At the museum we were treated to a lecture about the origins of the Adirondack Park and how difficult it is, even today, to figure out how to actually operate the for the benefit of all the creatures who live there - human and all the others.
