I have become increasingly interested in reenacting. When I was little, I always wanted to dress up to be “old-fasioned”. I thought that I’d outgrow it, but now, at 14, I’m still very interested.

I met Mrs. Burke from Vanished Arizona at “Pioneer day” at Colossal Cave. She’s been very helpful in answering my questions about reenacting.

I am most interested in the early victorian era (Civil War). Their dresses were so modest! I’ve also always liked long, full dresses, and that’s just what the early victorian ones are!
