The Low-Tech Times

Today, my wife and I went to the Shenandoah Valley Steam and Gas Engine Association Pageant of Steam in Berryville, Virginia. Unfortunately, a thunderstorm arrived just in time to rain on the parade of steam, but the event went on as scheduled. I used a cassette recorder to make a short audio recording of the noon whistle blow and parade of steam tractors.

The event also featured model-T fords, Stanley Steamers, a hay baling demonstration, a sawmill demonstration, corn dogs, and more. Fortunately, the weather cleared later in the afternoon.

I also shot a couple of short video clips, which I will try to upload in the coming days.
