These pictures I am posting are from the Craftsmanship Museum located in
Vista, California. Just a hop skip and jump from the beach at Carlsbad.
While we had been to Carlsbad many times I never knew about this Museum until
my wife found it with a google search. What a find. Miniature working models of
just about everything.
Here is a link to most of the pictures I took while in the museum.
unfortunately I did not have a polarizer with me so there is glare
in the pictures under glass.
