I may have already given you the name of this blog but they too are living like the past. Not like a play but every day. Simplicity of those days. They started out living as much like 1943 as possible..ration points and all but now are just living like those times in slowing down and living sustainably etc. I really, really enjoy this blog. it is : gdonna.com 1940's simplicity. She does not have comments but you can e-mail her.
They just finished an outside clothes washing room and bath house. She has lots of past articles too just click on the top or bottom of the blog..or side! Sarah
