Welcome To Pilgrims and Pioneers!

After many years of researching my family geneaology I have been lucky enough to discover actual information about my relatives that lived in the Pilgrim Era and the Pioneer Era- while many people also have realtives from those eras- many do not know their names or where they lived- actually seeing the proof in print makes you much more aware of who they really were.
After discovering these relatives it of course made me curious to learn more about the eras that they lived in and what their lives were like as, the history I learned in grade school had long since been forgotten.
I decided to start this blog for others who are also interested in these eras.
Some of the information here will be actual facts about my realtives and some will be information about the eras in general that I have found on the web.
I hope you will enjoy traveling back in time with me!

A Thyme to Harvest From the Earth







Today I worked at harvesting some vegetables from my garden.



Cucumbers, green beans, cherry tomatoes, yellow tomatoes and various kinds of red tomatoes.



The cucumbers have been made into refridgerator pickles amd the green beans will be dried tonight. Tomorrow I will pick the green beans at my son's house and ry them tomorrow night along with some of the tomatoes.



It will be so nice to enjoy these vegetables in December and January when the wind and snow is blowing.



With all of the preserving I have been doing I feel connected to all of my great grandmother's both Pilgrim and Pioneer's!
