Does anyone know the hours of the library at Platteville and also of the Veteran's Museum in Madison? We're planning a trip over there in a week or so and don't want to have either of them closed when we get there. I don't have the E-Mail address for either, so that would be helpful if anyone has them Thanks. Earlene Hutsell OK1WE1@aol.com
