Visit the Unique Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont

Nestled outside of Burlington, Vermont, the Shelburne Museum has been a unique attraction for children and adults alike since the mid-20th century. In this season one segment from “Weekends with Yankee” (episode 104), Richard explores the museum’s eclectic collections by talking with Kory Rogers, curator of the circus collection, and Chip Stalen, director of the Ticonderoga, a 1923 steamship that once sailed the waters of Lake Champlain. Experience a blast from the past on board, where Richard explores the ship’s well-preserved interior that replicates its original setup.
