Museum Coming Down the Street

Well really Foo was coming down the street and saw the Wells Fargo History Museum, not the other way around, so the song didn't exactly work. Foo does still love to channel the Music Man though.

Rolling on the River Foo

Foo just couldn't resist jumping up onto this old steamboat paddle. He tried to run around it a la Scooby Doo, but he just didn't have the force to move it.

Foo settled for a walk through the Point Pleasant River Museum where learning is fun and murals are pretty.

Foo-Size Bikes

At last Foo found bikes that we the right size for him and he was so excited. But again, they wouldn't let him take any out for a spin. Silly museum. 

Motorocycle History

Foo had a fun time at the Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum. He got to see all kinds of motorcycles and motorcycling things.

This interesting contraption was once such sight. It was one of the very first motorized motorcycles, and boy was it a clunking piece of work.

Foo's Been Working...

on the railroad. Well, not really. He just wanted to visit this Galveston museum and couldn't stop singing that song.

Santa's Summer Stopover

Foo really really wanted to meet Santa at his museum because he has a really big Christmas present to ask for. Sadly Santa wasn't there. Although there is Christmas in July, it was still June. He'd missed him by only a day!

Butterflies Are Not Free

Although Foo didn't get to go in the museum this time (too many children on summer camp trips), he knows full well that behind that weird silver wall in the back, there are captive butterflies. Foo will be back someday to free his flying friends!

Foo Sunk My Battleship!

While it really wasn't Foo's fault, he maniacally wanted to take credit for grounding this formidable World War II aircraft carrier called the U.S.S. Lexington.

It's a museum, but they took one look at Foo and turned him away. There was just something crazy about the look in his eye.

Foo on Kazoo

Foo loved visiting the original Kazoo Factory in Eden, NY, to see how they make the kazoos, still all on the original machines from the early 1900s. 

He even got to make his very own kazoo on a kazoo press, and it was Foo-rific! He immediately proceeded to play "Happy Boy!" to the annoyance of all around.

Horseless Carriage!

Foo got to ride on this authentic 1908 car on display in the basement of the Jell-O museum of all places. It was kinda rusty, but it sure was interesting! Too bad he couldn't take it for a Foo test drive.

There's Always Room for Jell-O

Foo visited the Jell-O museum LeRoy, NY, and was weirded out to learn that the original form of Jell-O was made from isinglass and deer antlers. Ewww. While there, he got to drive the Jell-O truck.

He also got to ride the fabulously decorated Jell-O cow backwards.

Then Foo worked his mental powers and started to bend some spoons from the interestingly decorated ceiling of the museum.

Kid Icarus

Foo was going to try to fly toward the sun, but this statue of Icarus at the Air Force museum reminded him that he would melt if he got too close, just like Icarus's wings. Thanks for the reminder, Kid!

Fight on Foo!

Foo enjoyed his visit to the National Museum of the United States Air Force in Dayton, Ohio. He enjoyed a walk through the memorial gardens and particularly liked this pyramind sculpture because Foo likes to fight, and the names of the fighter groups amused him: Skullmen, Comanches, and Skeeters.
