The Plain Life Of Black Creek

On Thursday my LINC classmates and I went to Black Creek Pioneer Village.

Black Creek Pioneer Village shows what Christmas was like and how it was celebrated 200 years ago. We spent the day with Tinsmith, Printer, Blacksmith and Leatherworker. We really saw how things are made and how they work. Learned the methods used by 19th century craftspeople. Stong family's house shows a plain life to us. The dim candle light, wood burning fireplace and peaceful knitting woman, I think we saw families working and playing together, enjoying the simple thing in life. It was this plain and simple lifestyle of peace.

At Black Creek Pioneer village you can escape the modern world, and experience Ontario's rich rural heritage. You can enjoy the peacefulness and joyfulness.
