The Oil Patch Museum is an interesting museum just off I-70 exit at Highway 281. This quote from the museum web site best describes what it is about. "The Oil Patch is a place to see, feel and learn about oil, the “Black Gold” that fuels man’s imagination as well as his machines. The story and events that make up the history of oil in this area will come alive at Oil Patch. Whether you are a youngster eager to explore a new subject or an experienced oil person looking to relive memories, you will catch the spirit of “oil at the patch!” This a good place to stop and stretch your legs if passing through the area.
