Apple Days was held over the weekend in Cashmere at the museum. I found myself volunteering in the Richardson Cabin in the pioneer village. Thirteen people lived in this home, originally built in the 1880s in Monitor, Washington. The home was moved to the pioneer village in 1961.

The interior featured the latest in appliances and furnishings at the time.

A number of other activities were held, including a gymnastics display.

The Boy Scouts were busy making cornbread and apple crisp.

The staged gunfights were enjoyed by all. There were a few vendors selling everything from jewelry to fudge. A bake sale and a book sale were also popular, as was the cafe with hot dogs and tacos on the menu. The children were enchanted with the pony rides.

The entertainment also featured a folk singer, mariachis and dancers.

A big feature is the apple pie baking contest. And I will leave you with this photo of the prize winners.
