Mill City Museum



FREE!! I love that word. We got free passes to the Mill City Museum from the Hennepin County Library's Museum Adventure Pass. AJ took the day off and we headed to check it out. We weren't sure what to expect and if it would be over Micah's head, but he had a GREAT time. There were lots of hands-on activities for him to do. The pics show him sending logs down the river and pushing a water turbine. He also ground and sifted wheat to make flour and rolled out dough in the kitchen area. He didn't want to leave even though we were an hour past lunchtime. There was a fun "Flour Tower" ride that gave the history of the flour mills in Minneapolis. AJ and I had a great time as well and found it to be very interesting.
