But our priority is getting as much of the village as we can reconstructed before winter sets in. Also recreating the displays that make it interesting and turn it into a living museum. We have a place and a need for volunteers. If you are interested contact the museum at info@indianvillage.org
This post will have to be short. We wanted to share pictures of the fall colors and our structures. We now have four standing and set up for visitation. They are not completely finished mind you. Coverings are still being applied and displays are still being built but it is a real experience now. The village is talking and showing us things we had never thought of. Such as we now can clearly understand that the front gate was the gate towards the creek in how they placed the structures. When we finish adding all the structures you can see that the gate visitors now enter into the village can be seen to be better protected by how the structures were built. You won't be able to just walk into the Plaza of the village without walking through a structure first! The creek side gate was protected with a large guard house. It's like having a front door and a back door.
We are so excited but in the mean time enjoy the pictures.
