If you're expecting an Old Town San Diego experience, it won't be found here. Instead, plan to spend some time among timber buildings in a park-like setting adjacent to the Greenway bike/ walking trail. Just south of the center of Murfreesboro, it's an easy place to stop at when in town. Closed Mondays (when I visited). Just watch out for... More

This is an assemblage of 19th century structures moved from their original locations. The collection needs maintenance and better funding. More

They were fascinated to watch the blacksmith using the forge to shape and repair his metal tools. We watched the farmer shear the sheep and then watched... More
