So just keep in mind that you are in for an adventure and everything should be viewed skeptically and with a healthy dose of rural Idaho grace. We came for the cave, and walked away shocked by the museum. Idaho's Mammoth Cave is located near Shoshone ID. You'll take H-75 and see two options to the left to get to the caves. The first left is a smaller, bumpier road, so I suggest waiting for the second turn. You'll pull into what looks like a bunch of dumpy outbuildings and a giant round hut. Turns out...it is a bunch of dumpy outbuildings and a giant round hut. There are tons of falling down structures and old farm equipment, dotted by giant rock heads and strutting peacocks. This place also stylizes itself as a bird sanctuary, but we only saw peacocks. A lot of peacocks. You'll go into the giant hut, which is the entrance to the cave and to the "museum". We were greeted by a kind young man who gave us his canned introduction of the place, handed us a lantern and pointed us to the cave. Unfortunately this place is not ADA compliant. The path down to the cave is a dirt path, pretty steeply sloped. The entrance to the cave has steps and the cave itself has very uneven walking paths and is rather narrow at a few points. You will immediately feel a temperature drop. The cave trail is only about 1/4 of a mile, but you lose the outside light quickly. Definitely keep your lantern on and don't turn it off on your unsuspecting partner who will shriek, hit you, and then wrestle the lantern away. :) The cave is cool, with some homespun signs with some (questionable) information. After exploring the cave, you'll return to the surface along the same path. Then you can explore the "museum". I put this in quotes, because it's more a freaky curated collection of things. There are three concentric circles that you will navigate to see SO. MANY. THINGS. Many of them fake, some of them probably pilfered, and all of them so dusty. You will see a lot of taxidermy. No doubt those things are legit. I have serious doubts about the dinosaur bones and ancient artifacts. There is no attempt to protect any of the artifacts and my historian's heart was screaming at the lack of order, proper dating and classification, and controlled containment. Regardless of the legitimate status of this place, it is a true Idaho experience. Owned by a private family, out in the middle of the high desert, with zero attempt to pander to the masses. This place screams Idaho and is absolutely worth a visit.

I visited Tracey Roxxane Herrick-Jones. I showed her a couple of ideas, but I really was not sold on any of my own ideas. I explained to her what I was thinking, and within hours, she messaged me and gave me not just great ideas, but she showed me exactly how the color would blend and cover my old tattoo. The work was done, and you can not even tell I ever had a tattoo underneath the amazing new work Tracey completed. I get compliments all the time, and I'm still amazed at how detailed and beautiful this turned out. Next, I had a memorial tattoo done a few years ago of my old LE K9 partner Zar. He was an amazing police K9 and literally saved my life twice from being shot. This tattoo obviously has special meaning to me. The tattoo was done in Ca., but I have always wanted to add a little to it, but I couldn't figure out what would be fitting enough to add, and not detract from my memorial of Zar. I visited Tracey again. I explained what I was looking for, but I had no actual suggestions. She is very intuitive. She added a spectacular addition to the memorial. My third tattoo was a cartoon idea I had of an old-school cop with K9 biting a burglar. To summarize, it was another amazing work of art. Her attention to detail is incredible. Details I never expected, but even many friends noticed and complimented the work along with many people who saw it on a cruise I was on. I give Tracy rave reviews because she is worth every moment you spend with her. I could not be happier with the work. She is a true perfectionist and a professional with an uncanny attention to detail.

Visited during the holidays, with my husband and kid, and looked at the reviews before we went. Was…read moreexcited to see all the different activities they have and the science experiments to go along. Our kid had a blast and is still talking about it! The only thing we didn't love is that the space is small, and there was often not room for us parents to be involved or even sit back and watch, and not really any places to sit. The tables for some of the activities were also adult height and which meant a lot of kids were either having to climb up on stools or be held up. It seemed to me that they could have had fewer activities to give the activities they have more space for kids and parents. But, again, the most important part is that the kid had fun.

I do wish there were more staff so there could be one at each activity to try and bring some kind of order to the chaos.

I think it would also be helpful to have them there to encourage the kids to give new things a try and show them how to do it.

The museum was located just blocks from the Red Lion Hotel. Although quite small, the museum was packed with pictures, items and stories of Post Falls from the past. You can't help but be inthralled with the items that are displayed, if you aren't already. But the stories and info that Ted, one of the volunteers and also a member of the Historical Society Board, share with us of how the town came to be until this day. You will be fascinated with some of the facts of Post Falls. We happen to be the only ones in the museum after a couple of people left so we had a one on one tour with Ted which was splendid because I'm sure he shared with us a lot more than if the placed were spilled with visitors. If you are in town, please stop by. There are no fees to take the tour of the museum, but donations are greatly appreciated. Ted was very kind and absolutely knowledgeable. Please stop in and get an ear full of some great history of Post Falls. The place is clean and set up nicely. One story, and mostly wide walking areas so easy to tour.
