Mike's Uncle Ron and Aunt Martha live really close to a place called Wilder Ranch State Park. On the Fourth of July they put on a 1908 celebration where they had a parade and a live band that was dressed in 1908 clothing. The parade consisted of women and children holding signs that read "let the mothers of the country vote." It really made you think how different things would have been if you lived back during that time and how much our country has progressed. It also made you think of all the changes that will come in the future. I am proud to live in this country.
Anyway, all the treats like homemade ice cream, rootbeer, strawberry shortcake all had to be puchased in 1908 money. Isaac was able to brush a horse and then go on a hayride which he really enjoyed. I think he had two ice cream cones for lunch that day.. thanks uncle Ron. :)!!
