Thankfulness thing 7

I'm falling behind somewhat in the thankfulness count, but I figure I spend plenty of time online for a living, so I'm not obligated to do so in my leisure time.

Today I'm thankful for museums.

Because of museums, I've seen more historic artifacts than I ever expected to in a lifetime. Visits to museums have strengthened my desire to pursue historic re-creation, mostly in small domestic items, at home. They also fill me with a sense of wonder at the craftsmanship (and craftswomanship) of the artisans of the past.
