Just spent Christmas in Dublin CA with my son and his family. Being a car nut I had to visit the Blackhawk Auto Museum. I had heard they had the local HO train club set up and amazing display that I thought my 5 yo grandson would love. The cars and trains were amazing.......but my Christmas Surprise was on the entire third floor. The total history of settling the west. From Lewis and Clark to Wounded Knee.........An amazing, miniature 3D, diorama showing the buffalo hunting up to Little Big Horn. Lots of fantastic antique firearms.....Loads of Sharps, Ballards, Trap Doors, Revolvers........Could have easily spent an entire day there!

 

But my family doesn't enjoy the whole western "thing" like I do...so an hour or so was the limit of their endurance as I slobbered all over myself!
