We realized when we were just about done seeing everything at the Bakken that the museum we'd really meant to see was the Pavek. It was open, and only 2 miles away, so we went there, too! Both awesome places to see, but I have to admit I liked the Pavek more; it caters more to collectors and geeks and has a everything-out-to-touch-and-experience feel more than a here's-this-old-thing-under-plexiglass feel of the Bakken, and we got a really great personal guided tour. Both museums have theremins in their collections, but the Pavek's is the one that's one of about 200 original RCA models. The Pavek is a museum about the history of broadcasting and recorded sound; the Bakken is a museum more about the history of the practical and medicinal uses for electricity. Anyway, we had a really really nice geeky date day.
