Iowa Historical Society and the Iowa State Capitol

This morning we checked out the State Historical Society museum with Grandma Jo, and Kristi and Carter Ritchie.  There were lots of cool things for us to check out!

Can you tell who is who.....

 
Oh my!

After the museum, we walked with Grandma Jo over to the capitol grounds.  Grandma Jo is standing on her county, Parker is standing on Papa and GG's county, and Aiden and Emery are standing on our county.  The boys loved checking out this huge map!

The law library is gorgeous!

Emery was just about done....

The look into either the House or Senate.

Here's the Iowa Supreme Court room.

The bell from the USS Iowa.

 
This cool 3 story safe is located in the Secretary of State's office.
