Guess who won the Colonial/StarWars dress up day dog parade? This little miss, Jeannette. I'll post a different image of her dress in comments

#Mosstodon #Gardens #MossSheep #OldSturbridgeVillage

This is where I volunteer. These are clumps of dirt, heaved by frost last winter. They look like sheep gathered at a gate.

#BloomScrolling #Nasturtiums #Volunteer #OldSturbridgeVillage

Where I volunteer, nasturtium spill down a stonewall retainer. Herb garden is shutting down for the season. To the left are some self seeded catchfly plants, I believe.

Sorry it's a FB link, but I volunteer at this history museum. They don't know it yet, but I can sorta operate a sawmill!

#KenBurns #Thesis #HampshireCollege #OldSturbridgeVillage #LivingHistory #Museums #Massachusetts

Here you'll find a conversation and short documentary by Ken Burns. He made this 50 years ago as his thesis.

It's important to me because my great Uncle worked here in the Law Office in the late 1960's and I now, at 63, I volunteer there weeding the Herb Garden. I hope to move on to other aspects of the museum, as a volunteer.

Hm. Circa 1860, Olive Seargent, Brattleboro, VT. Back when it was ok for Oliver Seargent to live as he saw fit!
