Museum Director’s Notes
By Debbie Benson, Director

“Taking a wrong turn allows you to see landscapes you wouldn’t otherwise have seen.”

 Rick Rubin 

Sometimes in the heat of July we find a reason to travel up to the cool. We may not have to take a wrong turn, but we may stop just to admire the shades of golden, dry grasses against the lavender hills. There may be a turnout on the highway where the only sound is that of a swiftly flowing river that cuts all other sound from our devices. A noisy peaceful rush of water. Worth the trip even to experience from the car window!
