McLean County part 2?
I had an amazing time today at the McLean county Museum. Before going to thw museum i could tell you very little about McLean county but after leaving the information filling museum i can tell you way. I learned so much about the early settlers and how they lived their lives. It is important to appreciate history of where you live because its good to know that our ancestors did a lot work to keep the town up and running. As we all know it is not required to be well informed about history in your county because it is not required of all citizens. Which is a sad thing because i feel like if we knew more about our history some people would value and appreciate the modern way of living these days. I have lived here for about ten months and i have not visited this museum previously because i did not realize how important it is to know about history of the place where you reside. Honestly, if it weren't for this class i probably would have never realized how important it is to know about the history of McLean county or even the county where i was born and raised. At the museum today i found that the Vietnam war room really caught my attention. I liked this room because of all the valuable information that i did not know about the war. For example when it started, how and why....Today was just an information filled day at the museum and i really enjoyed myself!
