I guess some people are just born with the knack. I can't sew to save my life. I think it's wonderful how some parents still take the time to make "lessons" come alive like that.

In that time streets had been laid out, town lots staked off, and steps taken toward the formation of a municipal government."<br /><br />Many settlers immediately started improving their new land or stood in line waiting to file their claim. Many children sold creek water to homesteaders waiting in line for five cents a cup, while other children gathered buffalo chips to provide fuel for cooking. By the second week, schools had opened and were being taught by volunteers paid by pupils' parents until regular school districts could be established. Within one month, Oklahoma City had five banks and six newspapers.<br /><br />On May 2, 1890, the Organic Act was passed creating the Oklahoma Territory. This act included the Panhandle of Oklahoma within the territory. It also allowed for central governments and designated Guthrie as the territory's capital.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09426821858355153898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11335434.post-24554506238066174452011-04-30T07:57:15.985-05:002011-04-30T07:57:15.985-05:00Looks like a fun tradition.
