To days gone by!
We went to the Ocali Country days at
the Silver River State Park and had the best time!
There were cowgirls, Indians and town people....
a wonderful day for exhibits and demonstrations!
I had fun...
hubby had fun!
But I don’t think I would have made a very good pioneer.
Do you wish you had lived back in the olden days?
Be honest! heehee!

If you ask my kids I DID live back in the olden days! No thanks on going back that far, but thanks for taking us along for your visit.
I do love the thoughts of simpler times, but I really enjoy modern conveniences!
That looks like a lot of fun! What a great way to spend the day. I actually would have liked to live back in the 1830's and done the Oregon Trail. It would have been fascinating to walk across the unsettled part of our country and start a new life. I actually did a post on it a couple of months ago. I really liked your picture of the cowgirl on her horse.
It looks like you and hubby had a great time! I love vintage things but I'm glad to have modern conveniences!!!
No,.. not really...Im a big whuss !

...but that does look interesting and makes me appreciate what I have.
I think I could have been a good pioneer. Before I became disabled, I used to participate in frontier re-enactments. Of course, I made all my clothing. It was fun and educational :)
Oh I'd like to try it for about fifteen minutes, perhaps an hour, until I needed to use the facilities. =D
Very cool place! I enjoyed seeing the older couple all dressed up as in days of old.
That raccoon in the pot would've done me in!
Only like a play. I like living in this time.

Diane, I would so love to tag along on these wonderful day trips you take. Always such interesting and fun places. I know I would not last a minute without indoor plumbing!! ;-) xo
It's a funny day to spend in a old atmosphere Diane !I love especially horses!May I become a cowgirr please?
Pioneers indeed! What a great thing to go to! Sweet!
Hugs,
Diane, great pictures. No, I am not a pioneer gal. I need bathrooms and air conditioning and malls! Haha.

Your talkin' to a girl who had to go out to an outhouse first thing of a mornin'. I took a bath in one of those round galvanized tubs. We carried water into the house, heated it up on the stove. We had a wringer washer on the back porch and a clothes line to dry 'em on.
The answer is NO!!! Gimme my jacuzzi tub and electric dryer any day over the olden days!!!! Heeehehe
Thanks for the trek through the past...your pictures are amazin' sweetie.
God bless and enjoy this beautiful day. Gotta go empty my dishwasher...woohoo!!!! :o)
I would love to go back to the late nineteenth century - no cars, no planes, peace and quiet and lovely frocks! But I would miss the medical care and washing machines!

I think I would like to live like that for maybe one day but thats it. I love my dishwasher, washing machine and dryer too much! Great pics!

Hello name mate! I have to catch up with your blog posts again. Anyway, I would be equally happy if I have been in that place. I love it the costumes and interacting with different people.
Considering I take a sound machine when I sleep outside in the tree house with the girls to drown out "nature", I don't think I would have done very well in the pioneer days. Great pictures. Looks like you had lots of fun.
You both look like you had a great time, so thank you for taking us so far back...no, I don't like those olden days, but I like to see them in movies only. Thanks for your lovely visit as now I have moire tableclots! Hugs,

What a wonderful way to spend a beautiful day. I love history but honestly, I would miss my modern conveniences. We are collectively such a spolied bunch aren't we? Thanks for joining my blog and giveaway. I hope to post some interesting thoughts as I go along.
Peace and Love, Jean
I can definitely say that I would not have survived the "olden days", but it sure looks like fun to visit those days for a few hours. You look so cute in that picture. laurie
Sometimes I think the olden days was probably so much better than the world we live in now. If you didn't have all these conveniences, you would never miss them!!
No way would I want to go back in time!
Looks like you had a great time.
No...I wouldn't want to live back in those days. I love it right where I'm at.
hugs,
Cindy
A few years ago the answer to that question would have been a big yes. Now the answer would be no. I used to think of it as a romantic time and era and now I wonder what ever made me think that.
This looked like a fun exhibit!
I'd need heat and hot water in the winter and air conditioning int he summer..lol!
There would be no way I would want to go back and live in those times. Some say it was simpler, but no, no, no, it was a hard life!
Looks like great fun. I could have probably survived, but I really like running hot and cold water and a thermastat!! LOL!
Great pictures and a very beautiful blog.
Have a nice day

Having lived in the "olden days" no...I would not want to live there again. :) At least they were as olden as I care to go. I would call the 1930's VERY old. :)
What a great day you had.
I love the photo of you. Sooo cute!!
I'll have to agree with Ricki, I do enjoy today's modern conveniences. Central heat and air, cars, planes, and let's don't forget the internet so I can follow fun blogs like yours!
Oh this looks like so much fun! We have a place here in the Nashville area that does something like this twice a year. It draws people from all over and it is so interesting to see how they lived and cooked in that era.
