I purchased a print, but it needed to be ordered/delivered to me. So I paid for it, and now we're into March 2024. Rob made several excuses on deliver delays, supplier issues, delays in frames, etc and even indicated it shipped in Nov but couldn't provide a tracking number. After many attempts I ask for the portrait or a refund in Dec. That's the last correspondence. ignoring calls, emails, messenger, etc. So I have no portrait and no refund.

Twos separate area of the barn are dedicated as galleries. I loved the way the art work was displayed throughout. Nice placement of furniture, pottery, etc. Almost everything is hand-made. Many of the paintings are painted by Carol herself. I fell in love with one, "Fire in the Pants", that I needed to purchase. I am going to bring it back to the States with me to display in my office. Carol's work is abstract painting. It was fun to look at her paintings and talk about what we saw. They are wonderful!

Worth the $19. Two adults and a senior. Clean bathrooms always a plus as well. They had a public computer if you needed to get on line for a bit as well. Glad we spent some time here.

Once you visit here, you will discover his inventions and research were much more extensive! He had groundbreaking work in optical telecommunications, hydrofoils, and aeronautics. He was the 2nd president of the National Geographic Society. He had a deep interest in the new science of heredity and helped shape its direction. He was also significant in providing education and research for the hearing impaired and speech impaired. This site and museum has many artifacts showing some of his works. I would have liked to have spent more time, maybe 6 hours in all. But a tip, don't forget to look at the beauty outside of this museum as the views are gorgeous and inspiring!

I am so glad they didn't shirk her story in the museum but showed her right along side her husband. I had no idea he was into flight. And that was so cool to learn! All in all, I really enjoyed this. also - there is plenty of parking. And i was able to secure a shady spot for my dogs. And - you can take the museum at your own pace.

I played here the morning of my wedding with my groomsmen, it was cold, really cold. In fact it was snowing on one of the holes at the top of the mountain. Yes a mountain. At least it feels that way when playing. the holes are up hill or down hill, not a whole lot of level playing. But Fun! But that was one of my most enjoyable games. This is the only course i have ever played where i will always get a cart. I just don't feel like walking up a mountain. The resort itself is awesome, the rooms are great, the views of Bras Dor Lakes are great, the food is oh-so-good. I can't wait to play this course, on a nicer summer day. (Not in October) The green fees are on the high range. Approx $65. But man I'll pay that to golf here. Check out http://www.capebretonresorts.com/ for package deals! Worth a look! Keep Swinging!
