Carol is a town historian in Grahamsville and is involved in Time and Valley Museum. She gave me a thorough tour of the museum, sharing her knowledge of historic events mixed with her own personal accounts. I thought the way she weaved in and out of those two realms was very interesting.

In this clip, she beings with the 3D model of the valley, talking about the towns included in the model.
