Guess what is being built next to the museum in Fallon Nevada?

Guess what is being built next to the museum in Fallon Nevada?

    I suppose they're just trying to be more efficient, but then again maybe it was just simply unintentional. It does make it convenient for our seniors being so close to the museum they now can visit the things they used own. Of course they were just thinking about street access and they do need a new senior center. But you have to admit it does cause some sublime thoughts to rise to the surface. If someone has memory problems they may very well end up in the museum instead of the senior center. Or maybe the museum was simply looking for an experienced source of help. Of course now they can offer a two-for-one ticket and you can visit the old things and the old people all the same time. And the more I think about it the more funny it gets and I can't help but realize that life is just funny if you know how to look at it. Think about it, if they put in a convalescent center it would be like one-stop shopping. You could drop off your old things and old relatives all in one place. Only in Fallon Nevada can you find such a thing. So live, laugh, and love life.

  1. A baby 'gown' that my Grandfather owned/wore as an infant was in the Fallon Museum. Wonder if it is still there?

  2. I collect smashed pennys from all the places I have been. I have always wanted to get a Fallon smashed penny. Do you know where I can get one? I did get a Lahontan Dam smashed penny. You gotta blog about the natural 'steam baths' near Fallon out in the desert where people go to 'cook'. Our mother would drag us kids out there and we never saw the point of getting hotter when it was already hot outside. She would sit in that smelly sulphur steam and cook away. We just ran around in the desert nearby where it was cooler. Also we lived near the Dog Pound and Sagoosby Dam. We mostly went swimming at Sagoosby.

  3. Thanks Dale for making this site and blogging! I lived in Fallon for near 30 years so it holds a lot of memories for me.
