Something for everyone: fabulous antique buttons, glassware, vintage toys, military memorabilia, and more. Just seeing the largest barn in Kansas was worth the price of admission. Looks like the upstairs is ready for a wedding venue or unique private parties. Highly recommend to families, lots of hands-on stuff and plenty of running room as well.

We were in Oakley to see the Buffalo Bill Cultural Center on our way to Monument Rocks and Little…read moreJersuleum State Park - both just about 20 miles south of Oakley. While at the Buffalo Bill Center, we spotted signs for the Fick Fossil and History Museum which is practically across the street from the Buffalo Bill Center. So, we decided to stop for a quick visit. This is a great little museum and was an unexpected find in the middle of Kansas. In my opinion, this was more of a history museum than a fossil museum although they did have several impressive fossil displays. Having recently visited the Sternberg Museum, I was more interested in some of the historical exhibits than I was in seeing more fossil displays. Admission is free; it's convenient to I-70 (Oakley exit). Allow 1-2 hours, longer if you have kids.

This museum was awesome! My sister and I stopped in here on our way to Denver and it was an amazing…read moredecision. It was free to enter and no more than 2 minutes off of highway 70, so no worries if you're on a budget. We planned to get in and out in an hour, which did not happen. We took 2 hours. It was very very fun, but don't come here if you like fossils and have somewhere to be! All of the fossils were found here, and they also have a wide variety of natural, local, and American historical artifacts. They even had some artifacts/pieces of stone from international landmarks (like Vesuvius and Egyptian tombs)! All in all, a very neat little gem off the side of the highway.

In Logan, KS I visited the Hansen Memorial Museum. This is a pretty little town and the museum is…read moreclearly a central point of the town, placed just like a courthouse square. Hansen was a wealthy self-made confidant of Eisenhower, and created a foundation to enhance the cultural and social lives of people in tiny Logan. If I lived there I would be attending every function. There was a more-than-creditable temporary exhibit of rag rug artisans from Michigan, and also a re-created office of the 1950s and 60s. I felt quite at home there! Hansen's sister was a thirty-year resident of Sendai, Japan!! They had some of her items there too. I was so pleased to make that connection. She retired to little Logan after many years of service and then died in her home. I wonder if she thought of Japan? Hard not to. I'm sure her soul flew there when she died. She was a music teacher. How wonderful. I did not enjoy a truck parked in front of me, festooned with anti-Obama bumper stickers. "It's time to flush this turd away"????? I don't think a Republican like Hansen would have stood for that.
