The Brinton Museum & Quarter Circle A Ranch

The Brinton Museum

Friday's trip with Jenny & Craig was to the Brinton Museum &  Quarter Circle A Ranch just outside Big Horn, WY.  We were able to take advantage of a tour of the farm house in addition to walking through the Brinton Museum.  

Brinton was a business man who used the ranch as a get-away location from his businesses.  Once he and his sister died, his collection of artifacts, antiques and paintings were gifted to the museum.  When we visited, the museum was hosting a showing of carved saddles and Native American ceremonial clothing.  Here's a few pictures to give a feel of what we saw.
