Housed in Canada's first Consolidated School (1879 -1903), this museum features a large collection of clocks and watches. Other exhibits included: a schoolroom and general store and a local art show. Rosanne liked the art show, Dave perfered the clocks. The colorful and vibrant-artist probably has SAD judging from the lack of grey and brown in his outdoor subject matter.
Found an out of the way exhibit - a rib bone and half a dozen photographs of a decaying right whale, which was found washed ashore nearby, in 1995. Perhaps too controversial for this small town, we should have asked about it.
Had a good chat with the ladies who work on the live quilting exhibit. Several had fond memories of NH vacations.
