The
Hall of History is filled with memories of many World War II
veterans... of family members, neighbors and campers who served in the armed
forces. Modern rest rooms are located half way down on the left and, at the
end of the hall, doors open up to a Banquet Room that seats 125 people.
The
Quilting Room has authentic clothing made from feed bags and other
outfits from Virginia Morris when she was a toddler.
Beside
the Banquet Room, you may eat in unique rooms next to many of the theme rooms
or in here. Many camping groups stay at the convenience sites with water and
electric hook ups located outside of the Museum and use the Museum for various
events. One of the highlights of this arrangements is the amusing and informative
tour of the museum by its owner- Clyde Morris.
Clyde
Morris served in the Navy and was sent to help clean up after the bombing of
Pearl Harbor.
What
makes this Museum so endearing to its visitors is the warm and personal feeling
they have as soon as they enter the door. The visitor is quickly transported
back 100 years or more especially to the time of the owner's parents.
Edith
and Ernest Morris- as they were on their 50th Wedding Anniversary.
They are the parents of Clyde Morris
Estelle and Charles Brauer on their wedding day. They
are the parents of Virginia Morris.
And
then there are the pictures of Clyde and Virginia when they were courting....
before they were married... before they had three children... before they had...
