Title:
Wisconsin Historic Sites
My husband and I had a chance to visit
Old World Wisconsin over the weekend. I hadn't been there in almost 20 years since I took a school field trip in the 80's. All I remembered from that trip was getting a splinter in my finger on one of the homestead porches.
What fun it is to revisit Old World Wisconsin as a "grown-up!"
It's still a great place for kids (especially girls into Laura Ingalls and the American Girls books) but I felt that I got more out of it as an adult. The costumed interpreters knew so much about the houses they were in. I learned a lot about the families that lived in these homes and their daily lives... boy, do we have it easy! I also got a lot of decorating ideas for our 1910 home!
Even if you're not a history buff, the Old World Wisconsin grounds are beautiful. They also have trams to take you to the homesteads now!
