Monkeys at the Brookshires Museum

January 31st, 2010

I saw a really funny sight of four monkeys playing each other at Monopoly. The monkeys all had name tags. My sister informed me that the monkeys represented each of the Brookshire brothers. There are two sets of two brothers and the two sets are cousins to each other.

An old railroad caboose is the last attraction at the museum and is really cool. We hope you enjoy your time at the museum. See you there!
