Turn of the century living

Today we went to one of the adobe museums. We learned to churn butter, press tortillas, drink buttermilk, cut paper shapes, and make butterflies out of tissue paper. The Theme was the yellow sun. Three generations went to the museum. 
After the arts and crafts we went on the tour. My dependent and I went on the tour. D kept wanting to sit down. There were others who kept sitting where they should not have been sitting, going where they should not have gone, and using  flash in taking pictures. I tried to keep my dependent out of trouble. Only once was D chastized by the docent. D kept touching the original butter churners from the 19th century.  Two men were told they couldn't leave the group as it was a guided tour. They had joined the group by accident. Within the minute they left the way they came. Two minors had left the group at the same time the men were talked to. The parent DID NOT call the two back. The parent waited until the group was on the move to join us. 
We had a great time. I even started knitting a beanie cap once in the middle of an event D was doing with a group.
