Field Trip!!



This spring my son's Photography group in 4H made the trip to New Ross Farm Museum for some photo opportunities. It was a rainy day, so the kids got burnt out and cranky fast so it was a quick trip, but if you are in to Heritage, or experiencing things of the Pioneer Days this is a great little place to go!






They do different demos during the day, when we were there they were doing sheep sheering, building apple barrels and the blacksmith was shoeing Oxen, but they also do things like make soup, tools, and candles. The workers all dress in period clothing, and have different stories to tell.







There is lots of great scenery and animals too, so there's really something for everyone to enjoy, so it's well worth making the trip out to visit.











To learn more about New Ross Farm Museum please visit their website (yea I know, who knew 'pioneers' knew how to run a website ;) all I thought they were for was adding Bass to your music....funny?...yes?...no?... bad pun eh? lol)

Deja Vu??

Here we are again, with yet another Revisit.  I wish I could get out and see something new, but with the lighthouses I haven't seen yet being so far away it's not easy. Then when I do get to go places I've already been and I have a lot of time to kill what else is there to do but to do a revisit and check things out.


Today's revisit was to the Black Rock Lighthouse.  This was one of the early ones I've been to back in 2010, so it's not like some of my other revisits that I get to every year.  Not much has changed, if anything at all, but I did forget how nice of a spot it was to look out over the water.


Anyway, there's my little blurb for today, nothing new... but at least it's something.

Safe Travels
