Yesterday we drove over to Silver City, NM to visit the Western New Mexico University Museum. They have the world's largest collection of pottery from the Mimbres Culture. And we have become quite interested in their petroglyphs and pottery. So we drove over, talked about them, took pictures, and went to lunch. We planned to join up with a friend who lives near there, but he was unable to join us. We missed visiting with him but still had a great outing for the day. 

Here are some of our finds: Some pieces are fairly modern, but most are 800 to 1200 years old, and are labeled in the photograph.

And, okay, this next picture is not an example of Mimbres pottery. 

The museum is in a restored historic landmark building that was constructed in 1904. 

The men's room from 1904 had unique features that deserved to be saved. 

Thus, "Historic Urinal."
