Question of the day...

If you could choose which era you wanted to live in...which would it be? Why? I would choose the late 1700's early 1800's. I love the old west and the sense of family that was still so prevalent and traditional at that time. I would have hosen to live out of the city... the frontier life. My life growing up was somewhat like that. My family lived as missionaries in a small town that consisted of gold miners, outfitters and a small indian village on the outskirts of the tiny town. We lived 120 miles from the nearest city and 10 miles back in the bush away from anything in a simple log cabin. No electricity, no running water... yup no toilet indoors. Winters were consistently 35-45 deg below 0. I miss that life... I love simple... so the 1800's would suit me just fine! Hope you all are having a GREAT week...2 more days til the weekend. Sallykate

I'd love to explore the Edwardian era - the times of the Titanic. Although being a woman in the 1910's had disadvantages! Kristen

This is such a hard question for me. I use to say I would of loved to be a participant in the 1960's stuff, now that thought makes me gag...don't like that peace, love and happiness stuff anymore. Now I turn towards more of a medivel times...but with my luck I would be a bar wench instead of a female knight, I don't think those were common. Ok...I have decided medivel but only if I can be a sword weilding bar wench by night and a princess by day . Tracey

I was born at the perfect time because all the great, time-saving inventions came along while I was growing up!! Jan

I enjoyed growing up in the era I did......the 60's. Music was good.....clothes were shocking........gas was cheap.........cars were fast TV shows and movies were all about "good stuff". LuvitsunnyVB~lo/goal

I would probably choose the future. The past is wonderful to read about but I couldn't imagine living in it, the way women where treated....the lack of modern medicine and such. Our current time is good and I'm happy with it but I look forward to the future and all the advancements that will be around when I'm older. Already I look at how "advanced" I thought things were in the 80s & 90s when I was growing up, that are now so far outdated its scarey.
