May. 23, 2008 - Burritt On The Mountain

We went on another wonderful field trip, and although I have a few more pictures of other field trips to add, I'll just add pictures from Burritt on the Mountain. This living history museum is located at 3101 Burritt Drive, Huntsville, Alabama 35801.  You may reach them at 256-536-2882 or visit their website at www.burrittmuseum.com 

 This picture is from the Smith-Williams House which was built around 1869.  It was orginally built on the eastern base of Monte Sano in an area known as MaKay's Hollow in Huntsville, Alabama.

 This is one of the goats that was in its fence behind the Smith-Williams House sticking its head through the fence waiting for someone to pet it.

This is a picture of the Blacksmith Shop.

These are some pictures of the Balch House which was built around 1887. It was originally located in Nebo, Alabama in Madison County.

Well, I hope you have enjoyed seeing a small part of Burritt on the Mountain.  I didn't put many pictures from the Barnyard at Burritt on the Mountain, but they have potbelly pigs, shetland ponies, sheep, goats, cows, and chickens.

....to the world of blogging! Thanks for dropping by my blog. I enjoyed looking at the pictures of your field trips. We don't get to travel much in the USA and so I enjoy seeing the US vicariously!
