Howetown Fall Harvest Show
Smokin' Bacon
Bob spent the weekend smoking his hard cheese and various cuts of our pork. He fed the crowds well. Meanwhile, Herself was up in the small house weaving and starving!
Bob's Smokehouse
I think it looks like an outhouse. The wood burning stove is behind the house at the end of the dirt pile covering the pipe. Honest, no body is buried there.
Galvanized Tub
Cook stove to warm your thighs
Front Porch Laundromat
Union Special
please tilt your head to the right.
yup, more work to be done on this puppy. Winter's work. 'Nuff said!
My corner of the world this weekend.
Hungry Me.
Canadian Production Wheel
It will be spinning next year. I promise you!
Does anyone know why the pictures are so far apart in the preview area? I have no idea what this will look like published. I want the pictures to stay put!

What great photos. And I can't believe you have a smoker! My DH will be envious. We've read and re-read that chapter in the Little House on the Prairie books to try and figure it out. Plus, I really like the idea of smoking hard cheese.
Leigh, try the Foxfire books. I'll try to remember to ask Bob which one.
Your Canadian lady looks to be in very good shape - what needs to be done? If you run into any issues, Dave at The Merlin Tree is fantastic with these wheels, as is Fred Hatton over in Lords Valley. The Hattons are at http://antique-spinning-wheels.blogspot.com
The wheel is gorgeous! Were there others demonstrating fiber crafts too?
When I first saw the smokehouse the first thing I thought of was outhouse - great minds thing alike :-)
Great pictures. The Foxfire books take me back. I loved them and expected to grow up to be just like them. That and the Whole Earth Catalog. Someone at work today called me "Granola" - made me laugh. I'm sending a link of this post to my friend who also has a Canadian wheel - I think she'll enjoy your post.
First thought was "outhouse"...
I miss thigh-warming stoves. The dinky electric with shorting burners and a miniature oven doesn't do the trick, though my washer has a better vibration than a wringer(!).
Love those Union Specials. The Canadian is beautiful. What a life! --syl
