We also visited the Green County Historical Museum, which had a ton of information about the local area, including a very large painting of the downtown area, how they figure it looked in 1800, which we found very interesting.
This museum was truly amazing! Free to visit, and it kept us busy for several hours. It was a real joy to wander thru!
