Life without...

This weeks newspaper is about the birthday of the first settlement in the United States. This first settlement was called Jamestown. It is 400 years old. As I think about what life was like 400 years ago I think about all the technologies and things we use now such as refrigerators, cars, GPS, and more. What do you think you would miss about the things we have today if YOU lived 400 years ago??

Hmmm.. this is a tough one. I think I could live without cars because I like to walk and I like riding horses. I would miss my diet pepsi because I really really like diet pepsi but I also like good cold water. I would miss a refrigerator and freezer but I think I could learn to live off the land. I would also miss hot showers but I could take a bath in the river. So, I think I would most miss access to a lot of different books. I don't think they had a library back then. They did a lot of story telling and sharing.

I could live without chocolate. I could go without country music but I would miss it.I would not miss M&M cookie dough. I could also live without hockey. But I would still need my favorite team the Minnesota Timberwolves.
