Today was my day to lead the tiger scouts meeting so I arranged a "Go and See It" at Old Borges Ranch. Ranger Dan did most of the work and all the boys had a great time!
| The kids learned about the chores 7 and 8 year old boys would do in the early 1900s |
| They pumped water from an underground well (Water really came out!) |
| They sawed wood for the fire |
| Fed the livestock ~ goats, chickens and sheep |
| Ranger Dan told us kids had about 3 hours of chores before and after school each day! |
| They rode horses |
| This was "girls work" ~ ringing the dinner bell ~ and cooking, growing veggies and sewing clothes |
| HIGHLY recommend visiting this place! If you're into hiking, there are also many trails here, too! |
