  1. What a special day Eva. It was fun seeing the juggler and acrobat and I always love seeing our native people's dances. The carved pig was well done! What gorgeous vegetables (the cauliflower!) and the small horses were beautiful . . the oxen too. Did Miriam say if it was easy or difficult to milk the goat?

  2. It was wonderful. She did not think it was too hard. Years ago, we milked a cow at the Farmer's Museum in Cooperstown!

    2. When I tried it, the farmer there told me I must have milked a million cows, it looked like I had grown up doing it every day. I told him that I had grown up next to a farm and had milked cows before, but only very briefly. I would never call myself an expert in milking cows!
