Western Museum of Mining and Industry

We had a fun time at the Burro Birthday Bash at the Mining museum last weekend. Outside, the kids met the burros, listened to some bluegrass music, watched a steam shovel demonstration and had birthday cupcakes.

Inside, they, along with Sophie, became mini miners.

Lucy ready to go find some gold.

Watch out for trains, Charlie!

Charlie giving the girls some last minute instructions before they enter the mine shaft.

All 4 kids tried panning for gold and could keep whatever they found. Unfortunately, we didn't come home any richer...
