World's Smallest Museum

Our road trip last month also took us to the World's Smallest Museum in Superior AZ. It is located next to the Buckboard Cafe.

The large tire on the bottom of the tire sculpture is from a truck that hauls ore and dirt in the open pit copper mines in the area.

The flower sculpture created from horse shoes caught my eye. Unique and interesting. Makes me wish I had access to a lot of old horse shoes. It would definitely be different yard art!

And finally, we have the wheel barrow water fountain that works only when it rains.


I was surprised we spent as much time there as we did, identifying ordinary objects in the life of miners. The building itself was not very big, but the yard around it had hundreds of items worthy of a look.
