This weekend I had a chance to visit a war museum.
Outside the museum tanks are on display from WWI to Desert Storm. I should have been a bit more careful on taking pictures of the signs of each tank so I would know what they were but I was too busy enjoying the nice day.
These tanks are quite popular as people wait to go inside the museum. Some people come here just to climb all over the tanks.
As a kid I used to draw tanks on my notes in school. If I grew up near this place I would be bugging my parents to come see the tanks every day lol.
Everyone wants to be a tank commander lol.
They even have bite sized tanks for the smaller kids to climb on.
Next to the tanks are some manicured gardens with strange metal chairs to sit in for selfies.
To help you cool down there are a number of different fountains. Some you can even walk under.
I didn't want to get my camera wet so I kept my distance. Here's a test of the camera on a fast shutter speed to get the little water drops in focus.
This museum used to be the estate of Robert R. McCormick who was a colonel for the 1st infantry division in WWI. Here's where he and his wife are buried next to his mansion that is also a museum.
It's quite a large place to explore and there's always something new to learn or see here. That's all for now, thanks for looking :-)
