Aug 2022 Update: COVID

Well, the development of this website took a short delay over the past two weeks, as I came down with COVID and had to stay home. I slept more than anything else, so it’s nice to be back at the Museum and working on things.

This blog will hopefully find a comfortable existence here and be updated regularly with things like THE ARTIFACT OF THE WEEK, or DID YOU KNOW? type posts. Until then, it’s just a place to document what needs to be done on this site. Our main page is misbehaving as I write this, showing double content. Our URL is currently blocked by the State Hospital, so to check anything out I have to pull it up on my phone.

So, back to work.

Hello World!

This is the first post on the blog that we are developing for the Colorado State Hospital Museum. This blog will feature some of the most interesting artifacts and stories that we come across while studying the museum’s old tomes.

Just a sample of the old books we have, dating back to the Hospital’s beginning in 1879.

This site is proudly run by volunteers. Right now it is very bare-bones, but we plan on changing that. We certainly plan on the blog being the main place on the site for interesting news and features. Other than that, we want to make sure that people know where we are and how they can visit us.
