While in my home town this afternoon we happened to stop at the local Historical Society. This room reminded me of my
great grandfather. He owned a general store in the late 1800's, and I can imagine it looked just like this picture. It would be awesome to board a time machine and go back there for just one day!

That is a nice busy scene like imagine stores used to be way back when.
Looks like a page out of history book! not going to find something similar here too, except maybe at the museum.
I think I would have loved to have lived in the 1800's. I would have been Calamity Joan. LOL!!
A trip back in time and a good choice for Ruby Tuesday.
Here's my RT entry.
I've so often imagined living back in the more 'simpler' times...this looks awesome.

How fun, I love living history museums and recreated stores. Better yet that you've got a family connection as well.

I love exhibits like that, brings us closer to our past
That's cool. I love historical stuff like that.
Very nice picture. When visiting a museum I always check out any stores they may have, they are worth the visit.
