Timehiker Help: 16th and 17th century songs (25) RE: Help: 16th and 17th century songs 11 Sep 00


I want to thank everyone again for the help. We went to the fair, and to make a long story short, got rained out. Our assigned tent was flooded, and the one they moved us to had a continuously running stage show, a ventriloquist act and a childrens theater group. Too much amplified noise for me to compete with. We did demonstrate old time games and crafts and it was an overall success, even without the music. I still use the songs at work though. I sing them while I tend the tobbacco fields or the vegetable gardens, or even just lounging around in the shade. It always attracts people, and creates a natural conversation starter for visitors who wouldn't otherwise ask a question or interact with our interpreters.

Next project is a family campout on our park grounds with some more conventional campfire songs. I promise not to sing "Kum-ba-ya"!

Take care
Timehiker
