    Amazing how the sheep is so calm while the man hand shears the wool.

    Oh i forgot to mention the film itself is so charming, probably a bellwether of what would soon come from a mind affected by this little schoolhouse and the people in it.

    kind of blowing my mind. we've passed the point of no turning back. these skills have been lost due to technology. we also lost regional culture because of the internet. what skills will we lose next ?

    It was all downhill from here. Kidding! Neat upload; it's a fine film, actually.

    19 minutes in, I already see two errors that these reenactors are making, that could cause frightening losses if done by real 1840s folk== 1) When making cheese they were allowing the whey to drain away.... Whey has important nutrients and it was saved, poured on grain or corn creating a mush that was fed to pigs. 2) blacksmiths never worked alone, in order to be productive one always had a BOY working the bellows and shoveling the coal. Also, one always has a piece heating in the fire while pounding on the last piece going back and forth, you literally don't stop hammering. My great grandpa was a blacksmith and shop owner with farriers working under him. I studied to be a Machinist.

      Yeah.. okay... But this is a pretty historically accurate doc overall. Even living in Rural NE today lots of these traditions still apply. Although modernity has made things a lot easier I can definitely see many commonalities especially regarding organic agriculture in NE today. The folks reenacting these tasks are doing a pretty nice job demonstrating them without a lifetime of training under their belts... on top of that, frightening losses could come at a surprise in many forms during this time! Thank you Ken Burns! lol

    I wonder what the name of that song is the ladies are singing.
