Coffee at homemakers Council

Pre history dugout found on Blackduck Lake

It was Hubbard Mothers turn to serve coffee at the Homemakers Council meeting.  When we serve coffee we also have to get the program lined up.  We chose to go to the Beltrami History Center which is housed in the Great Northern Depot.  Bemidji's Depot was the last one the J.J. Hill funded and had built.  The exhibit that is presently there is called "Trails in Time."    It is very interesting and the gals really enjoyed going back in time.  Each person found something there that just fascinated them.  I got into the time of the glaciers recede and the school exhibits.  The others found something in the logging, fur trade, ojibwe history, or Giacomo Costantino Beltrami.  All in all it was a hit and the women left excited to bring others there.
