Pilgrims and Pioneers: Little Things Make Me Happy!

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!

Little Things Make Me Happy!

I have wanted a food dehydrator for several years now.

Being as frugal as I am I looked at resale shops and never found one.

This year my garden is producing so well that I decided to go ahead and buy a new one.

The price has come down in the past few years and I think I got a good deal- no shipping charges- I ordered it on Tuesday and it came this afternoon by Fed Ex. Here it is on my counter getting it's first use. I am dehydrating, cherry tomatoes, regular tomatoes, Hubbard Squash, and Zucchini- I will know in the morning how they turn out! I am excited!!
