Throwback Thursday Blog-Style #274: September 19, 2019

Welcome back to... 


I know, I know, Throwback Thursday seems to be all about sharing pictures from the past, great memories that mean something to you, that you would like to share with others. At least that is how it appears to me. Throwback Thursday wasn't something I was participating in, and then I came up with an idea.

I thought it would be great fun and a help to my blog to share old content, but not just any old content. Each week I will share an old blog post from a previous year, any year, BUT it has to be from the current week (for example, something I've posted around September 19th, from any previous year)  I will go in, edit the post if needed, add a pinnable image if I don't already have one, and share it on Facebook.

Would you like to join in? You do not need to edit your past post in any way, you don't need to create a pinnable image, though it couldn't hurt, in fact it will help your blog traffic to add quality pinnable images to your posts.

Just go into your archives, choose a favorite post from this current week from any previous year, and link it up below. (If you don't have anything from this current week, it is still okay to link up with a post from a previous year around this time. And if you haven't been blogging for a full year, feel free to share any earlier post.)


Please make sure to share from the past as instructed above.  The spirit of Throwback Thursday Blog-Style is to share posts from the past. Please follow the guidelines. I would hate to have to delete your link.
Thank you

I will be pinning posts to my appropriate Pinterest boards and will be randomly selecting a Featured Throwback Thursday post to share next week. Just a note, I will be sharing a picture from your post if you are selected as the featured post, but I will link back to your post. I will ALWAYS give credit and link back. By linking up you are giving me permission to use your picture in the post. 

Here is my Throwback Thursday post
(This year I am going to focus on looking back at past reviews):

Here is this week's randomly selected
Featured Throwback Thursday post:

To participate, link up below. It would be great if you could visit several of the other posts that have linked up. Stop by, comment, and pin images so we can help each other.

No button currently, and there won't be one until I can figure it out seeing as Photobucket has changed things. Feel free to still share the picture in place of the button. Just link it to my Throwback Thursday Blog-Style permalink please.



Happy Throwback Thursday!

Wordless Wednesday: September 18, 2019 (w/linky) - Field Trip to Corning Museum of Glass

On Saturday we visited the Corning Museum of Glass and the Rockwell Museum. I got quite a few pictures, so I will be sharing the Rockwell Museum pictures next week. Hubby was most excited to see their exhibit on the moon. I, however, was looking forward to looking through the display of glass through history so we could spot some pieces that come from the time periods and places we have been learning about in our homeschool.

If you would like to see more pictures, I invite you to check out my Corning Museum of Glass Field Trip Part One and Corning Museum of Glass Field Trip Part Two posts from four years ago. We got so many pictures both times, and saw so much, but there was still so much new this time around. What a wonderful place to visit.


First we checked out some contemporary pieces.


















Then we enjoyed another glass blowing demonstration before heading to lunch.



I wish I had been able to snap a picture of the finished bowl. It was gorgeous.

After lunch we made out way to the moon exhibit.



Then we finally took some time looking through the history of glass.


I tried to pick out some of our favorite pieces. But it was so hard, there were so many interesting pieces.






They had a fun scavenger hunt paper for the children to take along with them in the museum.


























They were quite amused by seeing something as modern as a Pyrex measuring cup.






On the way out I spent some time taking pictures of the timeline on the wall. I had to share the following picture because this is the time period we are learning about right now. Cool. Never remember reading about this in school.


Looking forward to seeing your Wordless (or not so wordless) Wednesday posts this week.

No button currently, and there won't be one until I can figure it out seeing as Photobucket has changed things. Feel free to still share the picture in place of the button on your Wordless Wednesday post or in a list of Wordless Wednesday linkies. Just link it to my Wordless Wednesday permalink please.
