This is a great site! Thanks for sharing, I love Cool Science!

This is the first part of Roosevelt's expedition footage. There's no sound but motion pictures.

I loved watching the videos! I really enjoyed the scenes when they were on the river and on those skinny canoes!! It amazes me they made it out alive on those things!!

I am impressed with this student friendly site. I really like the trivia! I took Minnesota History at Mankato State and it is still one of my favorite classes today.

Good site. I liked the entire e-museum site, there is so much information beyond Minnesota history!
