I don't believe I would have made a very good pioneer. And this kitchen is not even a pioneer kitchen, but a slightly more modern one. . . and still I would not have done well in it. It's OK to camp out in one of these like when on vacation, but I sure wouldn't want to LIVE with it. I like my modern conviences a lot. This kitchen was part of the Harn Homestead which is just a few blocks from the Oklahoma Capital building. Alice and I visited the homestead on our recent sister trip.
Speaking of modern conviences, I can hardly wait to move into my house and have a washer and dryer again, a dish washer, a double sink in the kitchen and plenty of counter top space . . . non of which I have in my little apartment.

My grandparents had that kind of kitchen with a hand pump instead of a faucet--they also had an out house instead of an indoor toilet. So much for "the good old days"! Thanks heavens for indoor plumbing:goodjob:
Your inconveniences now will really make you appreciate your new home even more!!
Actually, I think you would have made a great pioneer. You may love the modern conviences, but you are also a trooper and would have risen to the occasion if called upon to live without them.
