Howell Living History Farm

I love when living history is authentic.  


When I don't see plastic tubs and cans of cola lying about 


and when the tools of the trade were the tools of the trade.


I like to imagine what is was really like all those years ago...


without a dishwasher, refrigerator, washer and dryer. 


And then I am thankful I have those modern things...


and  I am only left to imagine what life was like without them. 


It is hard enough for me to lose electricity for a few hours!

The day I spent imagining at 
Howell Living History Farm, 
Lambertville, NJ

Beautiful composition and color in both the shot of the chicken and the pail hanging on the S hook. All your photos are wonderful but those two are by far my favorites.

I'm finally catching up from last week. That chicken shot blows me away. As Mark says you are a truly gifted and remarkable photographer.
