Marion listed the fascinating property in May 2022, selling it for $295,000 (£232k) just three months later. But he didn't give up his passion for living museums, subsequently working at Missouri Town Living History Museum, in Kansas City.

Many of the buildings back in Warsaw needed some serious TLC. However, it seems the park has a new lease of life courtesy of Kumberland Gap who run popular Sorghum Days at the park (Sorghum is an ancient grain). You can feed farm animals tour the cabins and experience 1800s life once more. Marion has even stopped in for a visit.
