Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt, January 26th
Today's theme is old-fashioned. This carriage definitely qualifies for that.
That's my daughter sticking her face out the window. The museum had a "Pioneer Days" celebration in October, and we saw all kinds of old-fashioned outfits, crafts, objects, and techniques that day. There were no horses attached to the carriage, but they do give rides at a Bed and Breakfast in Navasota, TX, now-a-days. It has huge rubber bands that go under the carriage for a more comfortable ride. Nice gentle bounces, I suppose.

This picture is also from that day---and old-fashioned wagon.
I have a throwing-up kids today, so I may not get to visit like I would like to, but please do leave a comment here, and I'll check out your site when I can!
Next week's theme will be narrow. Check out other photo hunters at TNChick!

Hi Jenny!
I'm sorry to hear about the kids - I hope they feel better soon!
I live about 45 minutes from Silver Dollar City, which is an 1800's amusement park so we see this sort of stuff all the time. However, I was too dense to post anything from there. lol
Have a great weekend!

Now I got to tell you, this is some old fashioned stuff. I would love it if you stopped by for a visit. I am posting late today since I just got of the Carnival Freedom and their first annual Bloggers Cruise, 700 bloggers on board, it was fun, next one from New Orleans in February 09.

What a splendid carriage! So much fodder for the imagination -- My daughter would make believe that she was a princess riding to a ball, and my sons would make believe that they were bandits or highway robbers.

Lots of old fashioned things to see at the museum.

I hope your kids are feeling better now. I hate to see a child get sick.
Your photos are great. I love that stagecoach. Reminds me of "Black Bart" who robbed stage coaches and left a poem at the scene of the crime. Thanks for sharing this wonderful post. Happy Photo Hunting~

I wasn't able to come by last week. Hope your kids have fully recovered by now.
That's a nice old fashioned carriage. Something I see in movies with old settings.
