Abilene Carousel {Spring Break}

On Wednesday of Spring Break we headed to Abilene to check out the C.W. Parker Carousel and Old Town Abilene.  Since the weather wasn't too great, we just rode the carousel, looked at the old log cabin, and looked around at the indoor quilt show and telephone museum.


The carousel, which was built in 1901, still runs and the horses rock back and forth during the ride.  We had the place and the tour guide to ourselves.










The museum inside had a little replica carousel and plenty of quilts to keep Grandma Debbie occupied.
Such a fun little excursion for spring break and a place to plan to re-visit when the weather warms up.
