Peabody Museum at Harvard. (EXTREMELY pic heavy)
« on: March 23, 2017, 09:39:11 am »
Last week Angie and I went to Boston and stayed a week at an Eastern Medicine Institute and was given acupuncture, individually focused Chinese medicinal tea, retaught breathing, and 2-3 hours of Yoga a day and much more.  It was true reset experience and I can't explain how much better I feel in words, so I'll leave it at that.

I also went to the Boston Kyudo Archery center and watched a practice.  Sorry no pictures.

On Friday, I went to the Peabody Museum for Archaeology and Ethnology at Harvard.  I now get to say "I went to Harvard" ;D.
Thought seriously of buying the t-shirt to prove it! ;D

Anyhow, the museum is stunning, folks.  I thought it in many ways better than The Smithsonian in DC.

I'm going to post TONS of pictures and it will take me some time so check back as I go.  It may take me a couple days.

I didn't even take pictures of the other half of the museum which is geological and biological (natural history) and totally blew my mind.

If you ever visit Boston...put this on the top of the list.

Very cool stuff, Steve. Did you see the Subury bow? I think it's at the Peabody.

Thanks for the comments, guys. 

PatB - In these photos are the Sudbury Bow next to the Iroquois jacket.  It really was fascinating.  That jacket was just beautiful.
The bow really had taken on much set like it had been left strung on a wall.  It's shape and craft was beautiful.  It wasn't given the best spot for viewing though.  Couldn't see the belly side.

More to come.  They had a whole exhibit on artistry in arms and armor.
