River Valley Pioneer Museum
Body
My mere 40-plus years of being a Canadian, Hemphill County resident is a drop in the bucket compared to some of you old-timers. I suppose, as the years go by, the things that you take for granted suddenly become more valuable. Take for instance the existence of local museums.
The Postscript: What Thanksgiving Looks Like
