One of the recent blog posts on the Legacy website suggests browsing Clio, especially if you are still traveling during this summer. When I visited the site, I chose to explore Minnesota (that's where we are at present) and there were six pages of possible historical sites of one type or another. The Wulf C. Krabbenhoft Farmstead in Sabin (about ten miles from our location in Barnesville) caught my eye. It is an example of one of the few bonanza farms to prosper in Minnesota. The farm was settled in 1874 via the 1862 Homestead Act. The farmstead is on the National Register of Historic Places, although today the land is privately owned.

Here is part of the description from the "about Clio" website:
"Clio is an educational website and mobile application that guides the public to thousands of historical and cultural sites throughout the United States along with nature trails, art walking tours, and virtual tours of museums and sites. Built by scholars for public benefit, each entry includes a concise summary and useful information about a historical site, museum, monument, landmark, or other site of cultural or historical significance."
