I think it was like a 5 month journey of it though, they built their own homes and everything! It was sooo good, but there were some squabbles between families and such also, I still loved it though.<BR/><BR/>JennJennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05963404890327992253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1159470023574791632006-09-28T14:00:00.000-05:002006-09-28T14:00:00.000-05:00This reminds me of the a few PBS shows were people...This reminds me of the a few PBS shows were people would live in a period of time with no modern conveniences.

They had to do all the farm work without any machines.<BR/>Or families living in the year 1910 or 1920 and having servants. The life of the servants was very hard.Symeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05764328345651192246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21558651.post-1159334738032625212006-09-27T00:25:00.000-05:002006-09-27T00:25:00.000-05:00What a fun idea...I'm afraid I love my modern conv...What a fun idea...I'm afraid I love my modern conveniences too much to give that a try! lol It certainly does make one realize, though, how lucky we are to have running water, electricity, etc. I'll look forward to seeing pictures and good luck with this little adventure:-) HugsCarole Buranthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05497329055251626140noreply@blogger.com
