About this museum:
Enjoy a relaxing visit into 19th-century village life. Located in the heart of the Pocomoke Forest, Furnace Town is home to Maryland's only bog ore iron furnace. The furnace is situated 5 miles north of Snow Hill on the banks of Nassawango Creek. Furnace Town and its Nassawango Iron Furnace (recognized by The American Society of Mechanical Engineers as a National Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark) comprise an educational site of local archaeological and historical interest. The furnace and buildings are being restored, preserved and interpreted by Furnace Town Foundation, Inc.
How to Participate:
1. Go to the market! Any market will do! Food, Clothing, Plant or Animal, if you wish. You can go to the zoo or an art auction. Anywhere or anything that you pay money for a service. I once went to a nail salon.
2. Take pictures! Be creative (or not)
3. Tell us a little bit about the market, what brought you here?
4. Post the picture(s)
5. Don’t forget to post it to the MarketFridayCommunity #hive-196308 or hashtag it! #MarketFriday by @dswigle

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
they set my aunts house on fire
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
i’ve been praying,
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
"everywhere"

I love going to old museums and looking at the antique stuff that just a couple decades before was 'brand new' and hip, trendy for that era.
Isn't it interesting that it was only one or two generations away from where they made their own clothes? Okay, maybe three or four!
Thank you for stopping by!

Here is my post for this week :) https://steempeak.com/hive-119845/@tattoodjay/3ftwfr-market-friday-times-square
Hee! I love taking you along with me! This was a wonderful place to learn so much about the weaving industry. I am amazed that they let us take a sit down at their chair and guided us through the process!
Talk about work!!! I'd be fired!

What an interesting old Furnace Town Museum, dear Denise!
I would very much like to see it: -)
Thank you for the interesting photos and historical information.
And this is my new post for #marketfriday
Thank you so much, Svetlana! It was very interesting to watch these weavers make something from the balls of cotton that were picked. I am still overwhelmed by all of this! I know I could not do it!
Oh, I can see that there are lovely carved products from the men of Kuban! Thank you and thank you for supporting the challenge and thank you for dropping the link!

Did you maintain social distancing Denise? ;) jk. I've always been fascinated by those big weaver machines. And you did buy me that that orange throw, I hope? ;)
Oh, you know it!!!! LOL
This was from last summer and I was truly fascinated by all of it! Too bad you didn't get over there while you lived here! I think you would have loved it! Thank you for stopping by!
