Where Did The Summer Go!

Is time going faster or is it just me? This summer flew by so quickly. Hope you all had a great and safe summer. Fall is beginning here in Colorful Colorado and the leaves are beginning their change to brilliant reds and golds.
The summer was filled with meeting new people and catching up with old friends. I was thrilled to be able to meet a customer who purchased a dress about three years ago.Courtney and I hit it off as we had one very special thing in common, cemeteries. She was involved with the Old City Cemetery in Sacramento California.

we invited each other to our cemeteries and lo and behold Courtney was on a trip with her dad and stopped by for a visit. I had such a great time showing her around.
Thanks Courtney!

One the 8th of August we attended the Living History Days at South Park City in Fairplay, Colorado. It was a great time being dressed in historic dress and the people of South Park City treated us so well.



Afterwards we drove up into Buckskin Gulch to the site of Buckskin Jo a gold mining camp dating to 1859. What a beautiful area this is up 11,000-12,000 feet. Yes we did get quite a few odd stares from those who drove past.


When we are not out in the mountains wearing clothes from 100 years ago we spend time in our cemetery doing restoration work. I am the Director of the Evergreen Cemetery Benevolent Society in Colorado Springs.

We are currently working on fund raisers to attend schools back East in cemetery restoration. We are able to do a limited amount of restoration work. Here are some of the projects we did this summer.
