I thought this was worth mentioning. You might think that this museum would be all about transportation technology. They do have a lot of that, especially old cars and locomotives. However , they also have an extensive collection of bowie knives from the American frontier. I seem to remember these being displayed in the same general area with the steam-powered generators.

Just in case you ever go there.

Good to know! I'll be out that way this summer and that sounds like a good stop, if I can arrange it. Thanks for the heads up.
 
One of my favorite museums. Never knew that it had Bowles. I'm planning on going to the Detroit Institute of Art this weekend for the Faberge exhibit. I'll have to stop by there too.

Cheers,
Connor
 
Hey, never mind that, get some pics up! :D

Wow! You got me there, Jack. I was in Detroit on a weekend of lots of museum walking and architecture touring, and my batteries pooped out in my camera.

Sorry.
