Welcome to A Victorian Year in Ontario

Greetings Ladies and Gentlemen, the year is 1865, Her Majesty Queen Victoria has reigned since 1837 and we are in the midst of a prosperous era. The purpose of this blog is to record the daily round of chores, tasks, trials and triumphs of our household in rural Upper Canada (now known as Ontario). We have embarked on an experiment to live a year as close to the way it was done in 1865 as we possibly can. We will post our remarks and await your comments, suggestions and critiques. So join us as we travel back in time.

Fall day

Greetings 
Wow cool fall day today. getting the greenhouse winter ready. And the chicken coop. Dug some beautiful potatoes from the garden . Thank goodness for the warmth of the kitchen stove and plenty of hot water for a much needed warm bath. I am tired tonight and will hit the hay early ...well as soon as the birds go to bed.
