All of the activities at Pioneer Days are hands-on ways to do what the pioneers did in the 19th Century. Work related tasks like washing clothes on a washboard (with homemade soap that the volunteers make right before your very eyes), carving a leg for a chair and grinding corn are just a few things to do. You can also write with a quill pen and they make the ink right there on the homestead site with blueberries and other fruits for color.
Evan and Elliot write notes with a quill pen.
Walking on stilts was not as easy as it looks..
Elliot gives it a try while Drew looks on. Kim and I both tried the stilts. Kim did pretty good. I planted the stilts into the ground!
