We visited the Anasazi Heritage Museum in Dolores, Colorado. This is a pretty out of the way place, but it has a small first rate museum which I enjoyed visiting. It has a very well done history of the native Indians in the Four Corners area and is slam full of interesting artifacts. I like it a lot because there are very few "replicas" and the those are well labeled. I always find myself day dreaming a bit (wishing for that time machine) and wondering about the people who made and used the items on display. They probably had a tough life, of course. You would expect that of any primitive people where the number one daily task is survival. We have it quite good by comparison.
