Ya saw Malka the other day I think I remember you now ya you got to come by to see us again at least keep reading the blog lol.

Thank you. You volunteered in the homesite great, I dont remember your name did you work with me? sometimes I need a little biff to the head to remind me sometimes. You should come by Plimoth when your back in Ma. Thank you on the congrads.

It’s been a long time but I was a volunteer on the homesite about 10 years ago. I logged on because I’ll be back in MA to visit in early September. Congratulations on the manager position. Good to see that you are still enjoying what you do.

Hello! I am the same donna and visited at the end of last season and commented on the blog.

I like reading the blog and talk about the ideas and stories with my family, friends, and students. I encourage them to read and join the conversation.

I look forward to hearing you and the conversation generated by your blog — the voices like hearts beating with the life they know or recall — and giving life to visions that take me sometimes across time or space and sometimes to my own dirt roads — sometimes — to a turtle easing back into the Eel River — to a woman forming clay or breathing a fire to flame — to girls playing with dolls and keeping the birds from the corn — to a tobacco plant tenderly grown to be given as a gift — and then my own heart beats with great pounding — something from your stories, from your observations and reflections, or from a response on the blog clearly connects with my stories — and suddenly, I clearly stand placed and know my own name.

Well I dont know what type of weaveing they were talking about in the pilgrim vilage . If you were talking about clothing they sometimes used cedar bark to make shirts for the women. They also made woven belts and gaders out of plants like dog bane and milkweed that they twisted into cordage and died differnt colors. Clothing it self most times was deerskin, and bear skins for coats or beding, some small skins like foxs were sleave to keep there arms warm. Hope this help you steve.

Since they were leaving PP I couldn’t ask them to go down to WIP for the correct answer, so I said my belief was that natives of that period tended to keep with natural materials for clothing. Deerskin, bearskin, furs or feathers for protection from sun and cold.
What is the correct answer?

Nice to write you again on the blog. Thanks for the congrats on the new manager title. Look for a turtle story if she comes up that is.
thanks

Steve

Thank you for your kind words. I hope people come and read my blogs. I hope people like what I write. Is this the same donna that has visited us at the end of last year at Plimoth Plantation and commented last year on the blog?

thanks
