点评:The historic warehouse-turned-museum is filled with artifacts telling Micanopy’s early history. It was built in 1890 and used by J.E. Thrasher, Sr. as a warehouse of storage for his general merchandise business. When his original store burned in 1911, he used it as his store while he rebuilt his store.
Erik Murray, a board member of Micanopy Historic Preservation Trust, showed us around. The Thrasher Store exhibit feels like I was buying supplies in the 1800s. Other exhibits like the old round icebox, and washtubs with a washboard reminded me that a woman’s chores were much harder then.
It got into the politics of the day with the Seminole Wars exhibits. There’s a six-pounder cannon used in the Second Seminole war at Fort Micanopy. So many exhibits fit into a building that’s a part of history itself.
翻译:历史悠久的仓库改建为博物馆,里面摆满了讲述 Micanopy 早期历史的文物。它建于 1890 年,由 J.E. Thrasher, Sr. 用作他的一般商品业务的仓库。 1911 年他原来的店铺被烧毁后,他在重建店铺时将其用作自己的店铺。
Micanopy Historic Preservation Trust 的董事会成员 Erik Murray 带我们四处参观。 Thrasher Store 展览感觉就像我在 1800 年代购买用品。其他展品,如旧的圆形冰箱和带搓衣板的洗衣盆,让我想起当时女人的家务活要难得多。
它通过塞米诺尔战争展品进入了当时的政治。米卡诺皮堡在第二次塞米诺尔战争中使用了一门六磅重的大炮。如此多的展品适合一座本身就是历史一部分的建筑。
