    3. Hello List, Did any of you watch the PBS series "1900 House" where they put a modern day family in a 1900's house in England? It was excellent. Well, for the past year or so PBS has been working on a new project called "Frontier House." It runs from April 29 - May 1. Each episode is 1 hour. Here in Dallas it begins at 8:00 PM. It's basically Survivor 1880's style. For those with western pioneer families, or not, it should be an excellent series well worth watching. The introduction to the series states: "Have you ever wondered what life was really like for pioneers living in the American West during the late 19th century? How did they fare without the modern conveniences we take for granted? Could a modern-day family handle a pioneer family's lifestyle? Join us as we try to answer some of these questions." Info. on the series can be found at: http://www.pbs.org/wnet/frontierhouse/ Trust me, it will be worth watching. We might learn a little more about what our ancestors went through back than.
