Pioneer Day 2006
A variety of old time crafts and work skills were demonstrated Saturday during the Clarke County Museum's popular event.

This unusual barrel churn is spun by hand in a wooden frame. Creek Indian War militia reenactors pose in an authentic campsite setting. Washing clothes by hand in a washtub. Storyteller Wanda Johnson held adults' and youngsters' attention. Alabama Dairy Farmers' live exhibit showed how to milk a cow. Wonder how long it would take to make enough wooden shingles to roof a house? Cooking chili in a cast iron pot over an open fire. 'Blue Heron' is always a hit with his Indian displays. Grinding corn by hand takes a little elbow effort!
