"sometimes" continued...

More photos from Lower Fort Garry. 

On our travels back in time to the 1800's, one common theme that stood out amongst the people was how hard they worked, at everything. 

If you wanted to eat, you grew your own garden.

If you wanted to see at dusk or night, you made candles.

If you wanted to stay warm during the frigid winters, you knit your own sweaters.

And of course you would first have to spin your own wool.

I really like that last part but wonder how different my life would look if I had to do all those things for survival.
