1850s Strawberry Party,
5:30 to 8:30 p.m.,
Elijah Iles House,
Seventh and Cook streets.
Community sing, 7 p.m.
Here are my photos from this really fun event.
Larry and his father, David Latham Stevens.
The father lived in the house around 1937 or so.
I love the windows in this house.
I wonder if this effect can be duplicated with modern, energy efficient windows?
It is a strawberry party, so I thought I'd better show you some strawberries!
The community sing included patriotic songs.
I hear that after the Star Spangled Banner was sung, one person said "Play Ball"!

The outdoor party.
Be sure to count the stars in the flag.
Flowers in the back yard.
