Twilight Musuem
We went to the Twilight museum, not Timber Excellent review if you’re into Twilight. A must see. Actual actor and actress costumes were on display with Gay,(yes, this is the same educated Gay who works at the chamber of commerce- small town,lol) providing detailed overviews for scenes, props and other discoveries. Very knowledgeable and learned more than we wanted and needed, but was well-worth every moment. We would go back just to hang out with Gay!! Lol

Excellent Small Town Museum
The Timber Museum is an excellent place to stop if you have time to kill between Olympic adventures. It is not a huge museum, so you can get in and out in under an hour, but that's perfectly ok. The museum is a mixture of timber industry history and general local history. They have nice displays that aren't overly dense, which can be a problem with small museums at times. I feel like I know a little more about the industry and a little more about Forks. This is a quality small town museum.
