Displaying American history, culture, science, and technology exhibits with items of special interest for kids..

From North Star Mining Museum:

If you are a hardware buff, this is the museum for you. Indoors and out is a restored and preserved collection of mining paraphanalia from steam engines to picks and shovels. Headframes, skipjacks (20 man!), pelton wheels; biggest pelton wheel ever made, by gum!, and if you don't know what they are, or what they were used for, it's about time you found out.
