Foodie by John Whipple
All photos by Laine Doss
One of Miami's most enduring events is the annual Coconut Grove Arts Festival, now celebrating its 50th year.
Each President's Day weekend, tens of thousands of people attend this world-famous art festival to purchase and ponder art in every medium and price point -- from eight-foot tall kinetic sculptures to the tiniest canvas. Also for sale are artistic pieces of jewelry, clothing, and many, many different types of food and drink.
The Coconut Grove Arts Festival continues today from 10 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Admission is
$10 for adults, children 12 and under are free, and Coconut Grove
residents in the 33133 zip code are $5 with proof of residency.
We took a tour, searching for our favorite subject -- food. Here are a few pieces we thought were particularly interesting.

Is Farm to Table Worth the Price? Some Floridians Say No.
From LA to Boston, farm to table has taken root. Even the White House is
in on it. Shaped by books such as Michael Pollan's Ominvore's Dilemma
on "why we consume what we consume" and films like Food Inc., many have embraced the mantra and spend dining dollars at farm to table restaurants over other choices. Even Cleveland's in on it, with restaurants such as The Greenhouse Tavern culling national attention.
Despite the climate -- and the state's role in growing produce for the
rest of the country -- here in South Florida, the movement has barely taken hold. Even most farmers markets don't provide local, seasonal produce.
Here's one reason. In today's blog post on Market 17, a commenter writes:
What surprises me is that they're sticking with the same concept.
The farm to table gimmick isn't going to fly long term. Paying more for
less food because it's sourced
locally has a limited appeal.
I asked several people in my office and elsewhere, they agreed that the
ideal of farm to table isn't worth it.
I'm surprised by that, actually. I thought back to the sweet flesh of heirloom tomatoes in-season, juice smattering down wrist and elbow. I thought of a chef I had worked for who plucked sugar snap peas off the vine so I could taste concentrated sweetness that's lost by the hours. I thought of how prolific the sources are that address the deleterious long and short-term effects of big agriculture.
Will farm to table take root in South Florida? Or do you think it's not worth the price? Sound off in
the comments.

Wings captain Zetterberg to miss second straight
Jan 27, 2014, 4:58 PM EDT
The upper-body injury that made Henrik Zetterberg a late scratch for Sunday's loss to Florida will keep him out for a second game, according to the Detroit Free Press.
Zetterberg won't play on Tuesday against Philly, further complicating things for Detroit up front. On Sunday, Wings head coach Mike Babcock was forced to put Johan Franzen at center in place of Zetterberg, something the Wings wanted to avoid as Franzen had missed the previous 16 games with a concussion.
"You come to the rink hopeful [Zetterberg is] going to play," Babcock said, per Fox Sports Detroit. "Because we didn't have morning skate we didn't know. Then we got the news and went from there. We would have liked (Johan) Franzen not to play in the middle his first game back.
"When you're a winger and you got go in the middle it's great when you've played and you got tempo and you're in the kind of game shape you want to be. But that's part of life."
The Wings will also be without Pavel Datsyuk on Tuesday — he's dealing with a lower-body ailment — meaning Detroit will play Philly for the second time in a row without its dynamic duo.
While Detroit has been getting healthier lately (Franzen, Darren Helm, Jonathan Ericsson and Daniel Alfredsson have all returned over the last week), it's still dealing with a number of injury issues. Stephen Weiss, Jimmy Howard, Joakim Andersson and Cory Emmerton are all sidelined along with Datsyuk and Zetterberg.

The Obama Record
The Obama Record: The administration claims to have saved the U.S. auto industry. What it really saved was the industry's dominant union — and it weakened capitalism in the process.
Michigan is one of those light-blue states where Mitt Romney just may have a chance on Nov. 6. Don't be surprised, then, if Barack Obama's re-election campaign carpet-bombs it with ads noting that Romney once said the auto industry should go bankrupt, and that the Obama administration found a better way.
In fact, two of the Big Three automakers did go into bankruptcy under Obama. But it was a bankruptcy like no other before and, we hope, no other to come.
Washington not only used taxpayer money to buy control of General Motors and Chrysler, but it also rewrote the rules on the treatment of creditors.
Superficially at least, the intervention worked, but it hasn't been cheap. GM is back to making a profit, though it is struggling in Europe and once again has lost its No. 1 market share to Toyota. And the perennial problem child Chrysler is now in Fiat's lap.
The administration sold its interest in Chrysler in July 2011, racking up a loss of $1.3 billion. It still holds 26% of GM and is riding the stock price down. With GM shares trading at just over $20, the taxpayer's paper losses are at least $16 billion.
Those are just the obvious costs.
The government's tweaking of bankruptcy and tax rules freed GM from the usual limits on carrying pre-bankruptcy losses forward. Curt Levey, executive director of the conservative legal group Committee for Justice, estimates that this special tax break adds $18 billion to the cost of the GM deal.
Also, the bailouts would have cost much less if not for the favored treatment given to the United Auto Workers. According to analysis by the Heritage Foundation's James Sherk and George Mason University law professor Todd Zywicky, the UAW giveaways were worth about $26 billion.
Most of this sum came in payouts — stock and notes — to settle debts owed by GM and Chrysler to a union's Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association, an entity set up to cover retiree health care costs. VEBA fared much better than other unsecured creditors and even those (at Chrysler) with asset-backed debt.
The administration also added to taxpayers' costs by refusing to push for significant changes in compensation to current UAW employees.
Iran Deal: Not to be outdone by the Fuhrer, the Ayatollah Khamenei has penned a 416-page guide on how to rid Israel of the Jews. Once Tehran gets nukes, his theories can go into practice.Iran's Supreme Leader has now published his own version of "Mein Kampf," Hitler's infamous 1925-26 ...

Hillary Clinton's recent speech in which she decried "quarterly capitalism" has predictably generated a great deal of commentary. With good reason. Not only is "quarterly capitalism" a myth of the highest order, Clinton's solution to what is not a problem would bring great harm to the economy. ...

Does this service actually employ celebs to appear in videos? And even so, how exactly does this result in pieces of media that speak to the listener "by name"?
Let's say Johnny the visitor lands on my site and I have StarGreetz enabled there. Will Johnny see a video mentioning his name? Probably ot, right?
I just read every page of their web site and this clarification was surprisingly missing.

Flag-waving supporters of Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi staged a final rally before a divisive referendum on a new constitution that the Islamist leader hopes will bring an end to weeks of political crisis.
Cairo and other cities have seen a series of often violent demonstrations over the past three weeks since Mursi assumed sweeping new powers to push through the constitution, which he sees as a vital element of Egypt's transition to democracy after the overthrow of autocratic predecessor Hosni Mubarak last year.
At least eight people have died and hundreds have been injured, and a leading opposition figure warned of more blood on the streets during the voting this Saturday and next on a draft the opposition says is too heavily influenced by Islamists.
The referendum, held on two days because there aren't enough judges willing to monitor all polling stations, asks Egyptians to accept or reject a basic law that must be in place before national elections can be held early next year - an event many hope can steer the Arab world's most populous nation towards stability.
To bolster support for the constitution, Islamists who propelled Mursi to power in June's presidential election assembled at a mosque near the president's palace in Cairo.
"We've come here to say 'yes' to the constitution," they chanted, "Long live President Mursi." The majority of protesters were men with beards, and some had brought their children and veiled wives along.
"I came to say 'yes' to the legitimacy of President Mursi and to Islamic Sharia law," said Mohamed Murad, 37, a preacher at a mosque.
Members of the liberal, secular and Christian opposition began to gather to protest against the basic law outside the presidential palace.
Mohamed ElBaradei, an opposition leader and Nobel prize winner, urged Mursi to cancel the referendum "before it is too late".
Amr Moussa, a former head of the Arab League also prominent in the opposition, called on Egyptians to vote "no".
The measure is nevertheless expected to pass, given the well-organised Muslim Brotherhood's record of winning elections since the fall of Mubarak. Many Egyptians, tired of turmoil, may simply fall in line.
The first round of voting on Saturday will take place in Cairo and other major cities. Official results won't be announced until after the second round, though it is likely that details will emerge to give a good steer on the first-day figures, which are expected to show a strong vote in favour.
To provide security for the vote, the army has been deployed in force, with state television showing ranks of soldiers receiving their orders to protect polling stations and other government buildings. About 120,000 troops and 6000 tanks and armoured vehicles will be deployed.
While the military backed Mubarak and his predecessors, it has not intervened on either side in the present crisis.
The vote has proved hugely controversial, with supporters of the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood fighting on the streets with opposition groups.
The opposition says the constitution does not reflect the aspirations of all 83 million Egyptians because it is too Islamist and tramples on minority rights, including those of the Christian community.
Mursi's supporters say the constitution is needed if progress is to be made towards democracy.
While the opposition is telling its supporters to vote "no", it has also threatened to boycott proceedings if guarantees for a fair vote are not met. But staying away from the process could risk a loss of credibility, political experts say.
Many ordinary Egyptians are well aware of how contentious the constitution is, but simply want to get it out of the way so the country can move ahead to a more stable future.
"Do I like the constitution?" asked Ahmed Helmy, a 35-year-old engineer in Tahrir Square.
"No. But I want the referendum to take place so we can get out of this prolonged transitional period that's making me and millions of Egyptians wish we had left the country."

After the city of San Francisco essentially banned it, the parking app Sweetch responded by starting Freetch, an open-source project that offers up the app's code for any developer looking to solve the Bay Area's public parking issue.
Sweetch, which lets users secure a parking space for a flat fee of $5 and sell one for $4, was one of several apps mentioned by name in the cease and desist letter from City Attorney Dennis Herrera to fellow parking app MonkeyParking, TechCrunch reports.
Three out of 10 San Francisco cars are circling for a parking spot, the app's website says. The average driver spends 20 minutes looking for a spot every time he or she needs to park, adding up to 106 days in a lifetime, the site says. For Freetch, the goal is saving time and helping to reduce harmful emissions.
Since it offered up its code, Sweetch has recieved requests from developers all over the world CEO and founder Hamza Ouazzani Chahdi told Business Insider in an email.
On its blog, the Sweetch team writes it's found $5 to be the minimum reward to incentivize collaboration. Still, the app makers are open minded about the industry's future. They write, "We would love to see apps being created where drivers exchange spots for hugs, lollipops or flowers, were that to work."

A natural-history exhibit regales guests with interactive displays of animals, plants, and geography. In addition to its permanent exhibits, the center hosts an ever-changing selection of featured exhibits and special events. Outside the museum sits Ohio Village, a re-creation of a Civil War–era town. Costumed villagers bustle about the square, performing chores and activities of the era, such as churning butter and checking wooden PalmPilots. The town's 15 buildings showcase the height of 19th-century architecture and include a Gothic-revival church, a large town hall, and an open market.

Exclusive look at RunCore's new Pro V 100GB SandForce Solid State DiskRunCore mates the enterprise SandForce 1500 controller with consumer MLC memory. Consumers beware; this is the combo for enthusiasts in early 2010.
We have talked a lot about upcoming next generation solid state drives, but now it is time to quit talking and start benching. While everyone else is out running around looking for their next big news story, I have been tucked in my hotel room as if it was a satellite office. So here I am; shorts, sandals, T-shirt and the new RunCore Pro V (Five).
The RunCore Pro V is the company's upcoming enthusiast class solid state drive that pairs a SandForce 1500 enterprise controller with consumer MLC flash memory. If you are a frequent reader here at TweakTown, you already know that multi-level cell (MLC) flash costs less than single-level cell (SLC) flash. Most consumer SSDs use MLC flash since this allows manufacturers to reduce the cost of their SSDs.
SandForce is taking a two tier approach with their controllers. To be honest, we still do not have a lot of information about the SandForce 1200 and 1500 or what makes them different. We do know that the SandForce 1200 is designed for the consumer market and uses MLC flash. The SandForce 1500 is an enterprise controller that is capable of using SLC or MLC flash. So far we have only heard of two companies looking to match the SF 1500 with MLC memory.
As you can imagine this early in the game, we don't have retail product box images or exact pricing information. What we do know is that RunCore's Pro V is going to cost more than current Indilinx Barefoot based Pro IV drives, but we should not see the price double.
Today's preview is going to be down and dirty just like we like our women and Martinis. As you can see from the image above, we were not in our normal test location, but the workstation has been flown to Las Vegas just for this test.

Super Bowl XXXIX: Belichick, the hooded obsessive heading for gridiron greatness
As the New England Patriots prepare for tomorrow's showpiece, James Lawton in Jacksonville finds remarkable parallels between their driven head coach and Jose Mourinho
Saturday 05 February 2005
Even here on the other side of the football planet where they are staging Super Bowl XXXIX you find yourself pursuing again the elusive psyche of Jose Mourinho. He's older now, 52, and his dress sense, frankly, has gone to hell. He cannot spend much more than 10 bucks a go on his straggly hairstyle and that carefully studied six o'clock shadow is scraped away before he hunches down over another battery of game film.
But you know he is there even when he comes out in a hooded windcheater and clumpy training shoes. He has another name - Bill Belichick - and another culture and he would no more run along a touchline waving his arms than he would flash a winning smile into one of the cameras eternally playing across his craggy features, but he is there all right - he is Mourinho in another form and another game.
Or maybe Vince Lombardi, the legendary coach of the Green Bay Packers who enshrined himself in the language of American sport when he declared that winning wasn't the important thing, it was the only thing - and of whom one of his linebackers once said, "The greatest thing about the coach is that he doesn't play favourites. He treats us all like dogs."
The prevailing theory is that if Belichick guides his New England Patriots to their third Super Bowl victory in four years, if he gets the better of the relatively unheralded but formidably talented Andy Reid, who has taken the Philadelphia Eagles to four straight National Football Conference finals, he will announce himself as the most brilliantly penetrating and analytical coach in the history of the gridiron.
Much less emotional than Lombardi, with whom he shares a post-season record of nine wins and one loss, more thoughtful that his ultimately hard-headed Super Bowl-winning mentor Bill Parcels, his work in Boston has given him all the mystique of such modern giants as Bill Walsh of the 49ers, Tom Landry of the Dallas Cowboys and Dan Shula of the Miami Dolphins.
However, the parallel which lives most hauntingly, even spookily, is indeed with the Portuguese football man who conquered Europe in the time so many vastly more experienced, and distinguished, rivals take to win a toe-hold on a decent job.
Both Mourinho and Belichick are the sons of coaches. Both are failed players. Both agonised over those failures and made a vow that they would learn every nuance of the games that for one reason or another had rejected them - they wouldn't get out, they would get even, and then they might just take over the whole damned show.
There is more. When Mourinho scrambled so quickly into the coaching job of Benfica, the great club of his country, it represented breathtaking progress, but he walked away because he knew he wouldn't have a real chance to shape a team in the way that he had thought about, and worked for, ever since he had failed to win a place in his father's struggling side.
Around about the time Mourinho was slamming the door on his way out of the Estadio da Luz, Belichick was laconically addressing a hastily called press conference in New York. He was telling an astounded press corps that, no, it was nice of the great Parcells to nominate him as his successor as head coach of the Jets, the team led so spectacularly to an early Super Bowl victory by Joe Namath, but he was sorry, the job wasn't for him. Parcells, deeply impressed by Belichick when he worked as a defensive co-ordinator at the New York Giants and helped shape the anarchic brilliance of the destroyer Lawrence Taylor, was handing over a golden chalice of the game. But Belichick looked inside, saw poison and said, no, he would go his own way.
He mumbled platitudes to the press conference but privately he said, "Maybe I have just one chance left to be a successful head coach [earlier he had had a rocky time with the imperilled Cleveland Browns and had been sacked] and this just isn't the one I was looking for. I want to be judged by my own efforts, and I don't want to fail because of a set of circumstances I don't control." So as Mourinho left Benfica on his way to building a small-change empire at Porto, Belichick did the same in Boston.
The agony of Mourinho as a poorly equipped, under-performing player came to Belichick in his small college team in Connecticut. A fellow lineman recalls, "Bill had this great mind for the game, and a tremendous family background in it, but unfortunately he had this puny body. It was terrible to see his frustration. He was a better lacrosse player."
But the gridiron was his passion, his life. He grew up watching game film with his father Steve, an assistant coach for the Navy team in Annapolis, when the game against the Army still had some lingering importance, rather like the Yale-Harvard confrontations immortalised on the pages of F. Scott Fitzgerald. He'd go with his father to the train station and later the airport to collect the films, and Belichick Senior wearied of trying to get his son to bed. The old man would be watching, and re-watching, some subtle wrinkle in the backfield, and would catch sight of the boy, eyes wide, sitting back in the shadows.
Recently Belichick's 82-year-old mother showed an intrigued visitor around the family home in the Maryland naval college town, and he was fascinated to see the sparse, monkish place where the young, driven coach read tome after tome on the tactics of war and the gridiron, a link which would not have surprised the great French soldier Marshall Foch, who after seeing the Army-Navy game said, "Mon Dieu, this game has everything ... it is like war."
In her youth Belichick's mother taught Spanish in a college in Ohio, spoke four languages fluently and understood seven. Now she did something that her son has never done - a split from the Mourinho mould here. She made a joke, saying, "The only language I speak is football." Her visitor noted that it was as though the immaculately made twin beds in Belichick's old room were awaiting military inspection.
"Whatever success I've had it is because I've tried to understand the situation of the player," says Belichick. "I think the coach's duty is to avoid complicating matters. I also like players who have a need to achieve something, players for whom things haven't come so easily. I think that type of player tends to show much greater drive and intensity."
Because of the nature of gridiron the reality is that Belichick and his rival Adams will shape tomorrow's collision more profoundly than either of two superb quarterbacks, Tom Brady of the Patriots and Donovan McNabb of the Eagles. Brady will throw with a strong arm and a cool head - the way he did while being MVP in the Super Bowl wins over the St Louis Rams and the Carolina Panthers - and McNabb will from time to time run with bite and instant vision. But they will do so at the behest of their coaches. Like so many of the Patriots, Brady's success was never assured. He was a sixth-round draft pick, much less valued than McNabb as a college player. But now they speak of him as the new Joe Montana.
His Svengali puts huge faith in Brady, but he does not lift him above his team-mates in the routines of the team. Belichick says he received the vital message from his old coach at Annapolis, Al Laramore. "I learned a lot about the team concept and toughness from him. If he was not happy in a practice he would walk over to the water bucket and kick it over. Then he would say, 'You guys ain't getting a water break today.'"
Michael Gee, a Boston writer and a fellow undergraduate at Wesleyan College, recently went to a Belichick press conference hugging what he thought was a fine question. "I asked the coach about an obscure piece I had read in some deep corner of the internet. It was by a maths professor at the University of California who was crazy about football. He said he had done the figures and that it would make sense if coaches always went for fourth down rather than kick field goals." Gee was stunned when Belichick said coolly, "Yeah, I saw that - but you know the maths professor didn't factor in that you get fired if it goes wrong."
Gee reflects, "I know Belichick has a life outside football. I sometimes see him him at Fenway watching the Red Sox with his kids. I know he has some unlikely friends, like the old rocker Jon Bon Jovi and the Broadway actress Dana Delaney. But that answer told me something I always suspected. Since an early age he has been doing a lifetime graduation course in football.
"Why do they play for him? Because in football you take away a bit of your life every time they snap the ball - it's a medical fact - so why do they do it? Because they want to win - and nobody knows how to do that better than Bill Belichick." Rodney Harrison, a spiky veteran agrees, "The coach knows ... he knows everything."
Tom Brady is likely to win the game. But we know where he will first look if it happens. It will be towards Belichick and his cold stare on the touchline. Sound familiar? Maybe you have seen a few games at Stamford Bridge.

The Power of Forgiveness
How can I ever forgive?
How can I ever forgive?
Forgiveness. "My prayer is that as you read these stories, both new and old, you will find yourself taking a good look at your own story," writes West, the author of the book Forgiveness. "Consider this as a time-out for you, perhaps even as a long overdue opportunity to examine your life, your relationships, your wounds, your past, your faith. I can almost guarantee that, like those ten-second hugs my brother and I shared, digging in to what God says about forgiveness will be uncomfortable at times. However, only the brave ones—only those of us willing to wrestle with this tough issue—will ever discover the joy, victory, healing, restoration, and power of one word: forgiveness.

Chicago's Really Bad Week
The past week has been quite a crappy one for Chicago, Illinois, as it concerns their finances and schools. But none of the bad news should surprise regular readers of this blog. From the website of bond credit rating giant Moody's Investor Service late Wednesday night:
Moody's Investors Service has downgraded the City of Chicago's (IL) general obligation (GO) and sales tax ratings to A3 from Aa3; water and sewer senior lien revenue ratings to A1 from Aa2; and water and sewer second lien revenue ratings to A2 from Aa3. Chicago has $7.7 billion of GO debt, $566 million of sales tax debt, $2.0 billion of water revenue debt, and $1.3 billion of sewer revenue debt outstanding. The outlook on all ratings is negative.
It wasn't long ago that I blogged about Moody's warning the "Windy City" of a possible credit rating downgrade. From their website on April 17, 2013:
Moody's has announced its final approach to the way it will analyze and adjust pension liabilities as part of its credit analysis of state and local governments. These changes reflect the rating agency's view that pension obligations are a significant source of credit pressure for governments and warrant a more conservative view of the potential size of the obligations. As a result of this new approach, Moody's has also placed the general obligation ratings of the cities of Chicago, Cincinnati, Minneapolis, and Portland, OR, and of 25 other US local governments and school districts on review for possible downgrade. The entities whose ratings have been placed on review have large adjusted net pension liabilities relative to their rating category…
Moody's rates over 8,000 local governments in the United States. Less than 1% of those with general obligation or equivalent ratings have been placed under review because of the new pension adjustments.
I've been pointing out Chicago's financial woes for some time now- despite City Hall's claim that "all's well." I wrote on July 25, 2012:
There's good news and bad news out concerning Chicago's finances.
The good news is that the city has more cash on hand these days due to Mayor Rahm Emanuel's cost-cutting.
The bad news is that the Windy City is falling deeper into debt.
Fran Spielman wrote on the Chicago Sun-Times website Sunday:
Mayor Rahm Emanuel closed the books on 2011 with $310 million in cash on hand, $167 million more than the year before, but added $465 million to the mountain of debt piled on Chicago taxpayers, year-end audits show…
The new round of borrowing brings Chicago's total long-term debt to just over $27 billion. That's $10,000 for every one of the city's nearly 2.7 million residents. More than a decade ago, the debt load was $9.6 billion or $3,338-per-resident.
(Editor's note: Italics added for emphasis)
The City of Chicago's response? From the piece:
"Is it troubling? The answer is, 'no.' We still have a very strong bond rating. Our fiscal position is getting better every year and we are aggressively managing our liabilities and obligations," City Comptroller Amer Ahmad said Friday, the same day that Moody's Investor's Service downgraded $6.8 billion in O'Hare Airport bonds.
So much for that "very strong bond rating."
As for the Chicago public schools? Remember this post from September 13, 2012?:
By now, many of you have probably heard about the teachers strike going on in Chicago. Day 4 and counting. While many Chicago public school teachers are probably worth every red cent of the $71,017 median salary they command- and more- when all things are considered, considering the precarious financial situation of the Chicago Public Schools, a larger crisis looks to be right around the corner. Rosalind Rossi wrote on the Chicago Sun-Times website yesterday:
As school and union leaders wrestled over a new teachers contract Tuesday, a huge, nagging question loomed in the background:
Once they finish, how will Chicago Public Schools pay for any new contract they forge?
There's no easy give in the budget, because CPS already depleted its rainy day "reserve" fund to help plug a $665 million deficit this school year.
And if officials eke out enough cuts to pay for the cost of teacher raises this school year, a $1 billion deficit — and no "reserve" cushion — awaits them next school year, when a pension relief package expires.
(Editor's note: Italics added for emphasis)
$1 billion deficit next year and no reserve funds left?
Besides significant cuts, there's already been talk of massive teacher layoffs, larger class sizes, and higher taxes being required in the near future.
Time will tell how this all plays out.
Time looks to be up. From Noreen S. Ahmed-Ullah and Kim Geiger on the Chicago Tribune website this morning:
Citing a $1 billion budget deficit, Chicago Public Schools will lay off more than 2,000 employees, more than 1,000 of them teachers, the district said Thursday night.
About half of the 1,036 teachers being let go are tenured. The latest layoffs, which also include 1,077 school staff members, are in addition to 855 employees — including 420 teachers — who were laid off last month as a result of the district's decision to close 49 elementary schools and a high school program.
I love Chicago, and I wish only the best for the neighbors I just recently left behind. But one word comes to mind right now as I look back at everything I've just typed:
Here's hoping next week is a better one for the "City by the Lake."
You can read the Moody's downgrade notice on their website here.

The museum had a fantastic layout and was both interactive and informative. I am a history buff and I had a field day.
Our day down to Bisbee was a lot of fun for all. We Had a very nice lunch and a great walk through the Town. The people are very friendly and helpful.
There are many great attractions inside the museum for young and old alike. I learned a lot about Bisbee's history.
Its a good way to learn what a mine does and it very cool down there , we all like it .After we were done we picked out rocks to add to our supply .
One of the best museums we've been to and is comparable on a much smaller scale to the Phoenix Children's museum. Very hands on and lot's of great things for kids. We were very impressed and our boys ages 6 and 12 both loved it. The museum staff were eager to answer questions and really knew their stuff about the...
Bisbee is a darling little mining town in the mountains of Southern Arizona. The Museum is very interesting, with lots of background on Bisbee in it's "hey day". Once you have seen the museum, you need to walk the main street and visit all the little shops there. You will find lovely turquoise jewelry and more, and then make your...
was nicely done lots of great displays had lots of time to go in also if you left and wanted to go back you could in the same day
The mining information upstairs takes you through the progress and changes in mining. Loved the old photos!
