Zolfo Springs Pioneer Park Days March 3, 2007

Our 2007 Booshways.

On the left Mary Mitchell or as we like to call her, Madame Booshway of Pioneer Park and on the right Sharon & Mike Rutan Alafia Booshways.

Mary was a reluctant Booshway but an excellent one. She made sure we all had every thing we needed. She even had time to create a special surprise for one of the participants. Thanks Mary you did a great job!!!

Come on into the encampment!

Here is the entrance

Our favorite Bead Man was setup next to the Thomas's camp

Marsha & Ed Taylor's camp

Ron & Diane Capp's camp

Al Bailey's camp, or as we fondly call him Ol' Poopie Pants

Dana & Nita's camp. Mike Rutan is talking to Nita.

Clayton & Janie Graves's home away from home. Bert Aurich is visiting with Janie.

Mr. Monty's Mercantile. Also the home of

Monty & Terri Davies

 Piper Bob was there providing drinks to quench the thirst of the masses.

Doyle  and his Two Eagles Crew were there and cooked up a storm.

Gator came and brought his store. Also I did not get a  picture of Wooden Hawk's store and Two Moons' store. I'm telling you it was like a mini Alafia.

Demonstrations

 

The Dulcimer Girls played for everyone.

 

Suz and Charlie did several songs too!

 I believe this lady's name is Morning Dove and she is weaving on a loom.

Ed Taylor talked to people about his guns.

Terri Davies showed curious folks the way to make cornhusk dolls.

 

Doug Barker demonstrated how to brain tan deer hides.

 

 

Doug teaches Clayton how to soften this hide.

On Sunday Sharon and I churned butter. On Saturday Sharon and I cooked a pot roast, a ham and baked 2 cakes in the dutch oven.

 

 

Just For Fun

The Wabbit Hunt

Gator and his Grandson go on a Wabbit hunt together. Shhhh I think I see the wabbit!

 

 

Doyle's new breechcloth

 

Saturday Night Supper

We had a large crowd almost the whole camp showed up for the covered dish dinner.

Doyle let us use the Two Eagles dinning room to have our dinner.

There must have been 35- 40 people in there.

Things were very cozy, but we were in out of the weather.

 

Mary Mitchell came through with a birthday cake for Piper Bob. 

 

He certainly was surprised!

This Birthday Boy takes the cake!

 

Later...

some of us played CLR

while others sat

 

and talked by the fire

 

and certain others...snoozed!

I still don't know what these two were up to...but you can be sure it was no good!
