Living History

[mala_14]

Today was our big educational annual event where we set up stations and school groups come and learn about how things were done c.1815. We have a lot of people in the group who have farms. This means that today I showed up and there were:

• 2 ducks
• 3 chickens, one of which was about 5 weeks old
• a big, furry 5 month old puppy, named Roy! (half Great Pyrenees, which is why he was so big)
• a little black LAMB-Y!!! OMG SO adorable!

So I had to work and stuff doing demonstrations on kids' clothing and dressing up volunteer kids in shirts and shortgowns and such. But during lulls and afterwards I spent a LOT of time petting the puppy and the lamby. :D
