EVAH C. CRAY HISTORICAL HOME MUSEUM

ATCHISON, KS

Hello from auld lang syne It's not often you find a restored Corvair station wagon puttering by. Only the obscured pickup and asphalt road suggest this is a modern image. Fun fact: the engine is in the rear, under the cargo area floor, thereby necessitating the big air intakes on the side. Processing note: Bleach bypass simulated by combining color image (DXO photolab deep prime NR, window glare mitigated by local application of clearview) with BW (Silver EFX pro, high structure, smooth setting) at 50% normal blending mode.

The Evah C. Cray Historical Home Museum is a beautifully restored Victorian-era home located in Atchison, Kansas. The museum is dedicated to preserving the history of Atchison and the surrounding area, and provides visitors with a fascinating glimpse into life during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The museum is housed in a two-story brick home that was built in the 1880s by local businessman M.P. Rively. In 1906, the home was purchased by Evah C. Cray, who lived there until her death in 1969. The home was then donated to the Historical Society of Atchison, and was opened to the public as a museum in 1973.

Today, visitors to the Evah C. Cray Historical Home Museum can take a guided tour of the home and see a wide variety of artifacts and exhibits. The museum features a number of period rooms, including a parlor, a dining room, and a bedroom, all of which are furnished with authentic Victorian-era furniture and decor. Visitors can also see exhibits on local history, including displays on Atchison's early settlers, its role in the Civil War, and its famous residents, such as Amelia Earhart.

Overall, the Evah C. Cray Historical Home Museum is a must-see destination for anyone interested in Atchison's history, or in Victorian-era homes and decor. With its beautifully restored rooms and fascinating exhibits, it offers a unique and engaging experience for visitors of all ages.

Placescapes: Still spinning after 150 years (infrared) I was recently passing the Atchison, KS railroad bridge when it opened for an imminently passing barge. Said boat did not appear before I had to move on. A series of IR filtered images were taken then stitched into this panorama with Hugin.
