Candlelight Tour 2008


Last weekend was Candlelight Tour, our first person re-enactment event. As I said in a recent post, I was not able to attend the first evening due to illness, but was very happy to be there on Saturday! It was a great time like every year! Hannah re-enacted at this event for the first time and did a wonderful job!




Rag curls took forever to put in! Here we are halfway done!




Completly finished! Looking like a rag doll!




Daniel, portraying William Tolmie. Son of Dr. Tolmie, the man in charge of the Fort. In his lovely night shirt

Esther portraying Cecila Work, the second youngest sister of Dr. Tolmie's wife. Wearing the beautiful dress Melissa made her. Hannah portraying, Mary Finlayson. Cousin of Daniel (William) and neice to Esther (Cecila).

The children with the young ladies who would be watching them for the evening.




Young Ladies--Taylor, me, Melissa, Nona and Monica


Cassie and Nona waiting for the evening to begin




Listening to people speak during the flag pole meeting




All the Pollock children doing a quick photo right before everything starts!




Must have been tired of acting like a lady!

Still looking like a little lady!

Glazed eyes--must have had too much fiddling and dancing!


"It's all over!!"
