Consulting L.S.A.

If you have time to check out the museum, be sure and talk to Maria Jackson, who has worked for the State Museum 3 years.  She will give you a wonderful tour and tell you all about the buildings there...like the Harriet Carnes playhouse which is completely furnished with child size furnishings built by her father, State Rep. Grover C. Carnes in the 1930's.
