Passion for the Past. Thoughts and Social History for the Living Historian. Wednesday, August 27, 2014. Jackson 2014 - 30th Anniversary. A lifetime.at thirty years old I was married with one child and another on the way. Thirty years ago my oldest child was not even born yet and now he's going to be a father himself. That's how long the Jackson Civil War Muster in Michigan has been going on for. This year was my 11th as a participant. A reenactor friend (who we'll call Mr. P) said the same thing. Jackson...

Passion for the Past. Thoughts and Social History for the Living Historian. Monday, June 30, 2014. Sunday on the Farm: Historic Waterloo Farm. I've said it before - numerous times before - and I'll say it again: I love reenacting at historic Waterloo Farm way out in Grass Lake, Michigan. First off, the ride out there is beautiful, with the hilly, winding road dotted with other very old structures along the way. The best part of this historical farm is that we get to play in it. Oh yes we do! So every yea...

Passion for the Past. Thoughts and Social History for the Living Historian. Saturday, April 19, 2014. Colonial Ken Visits Greenfield Village. I went out and purchased colonial clothing for myself. As I've written in a posting earlier this year, I have been wanting to do colonial reenacting for many years. In all actuality, the colonial era was my first history love, dating way back to when I was a small lad during the pre-bicentennial era of the late 1960's /. Anti-war advocate (even in history) and want...

Are dragging while we tear everything down three days later. It's all good moods though, you know? We're all just so very happy to not only be back in the world of living history, but doing it at historic Greenfield Village! Being allowed to camp and reenact amongst dozens of historic homes and buildings from the 18th and 19th centuries is as good as it gets.

Passion for the Past. Thoughts and Social History for the Living Historian. Monday, September 29, 2014. The Civil War Comes to Greenmead Historical Village. There are those who say that we have too many historical reenactments, that due to the overwhelming amount of opportunities to portray life in the past, less participants will take part. Then there are those who grab the bull by the horns and say, "Bring 'em on! And attend nearly every reenactment that takes place. Talk about an anachronism! The hist...
