Here, you can cook a meal in the farmhouse kitchen, raise a barn, tend to your vegetable patch, do some cloth weaving, or visit the general store, the print shop and the post office. It\u2019s a great place to take a break from your cell phone or tablet.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bromemuseum.com\/portfolio-view\/childrens-museum\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/www.bromemuseum.com\/portfolio-view\/childrens-museum\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>HIKING<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Fall has started with a flourish, with nature decked out in its magnificent hues of red and orange.
