The Village, which has been designated Grayson County’s official museum, has been described as one of the county’s “Best Kept Secrets.”

When walking into the Frontier Village the boys started off in the Visitor’s Center.  There they found a museum brimming with artifacts (gifts from people throughout Grayson County) from the days long ago.

Next they took a stroll through the past outside. A time capsule of local history, Frontier Village consists of 11 historic homes including the county’s oldest school, a country store, old church, newspaper office, a museum, and research center.  There are collections of mule-drawn farm implements and early hand tools; even a portable jail that housed county prisoners working on roads before 1920.

The boys enjoyed a great winter camp out at Eisenhower State Park January 15th, 16th, and 17th.  Activities included hiking, outdoor cooking with dutch ovens, roasting marshmallows, exploring, and camping in cold weather.

Saturday started off with a great breakfast including scrambled eggs cooked in a dutch oven, hot chocolate, sausage, and pancakes.  Shortly after breakfast a light snowfall started with nice large snowflakes that didn’t even slow the boys down.
