Jacob’s Trip To Wade House

“HI”, My name is Jacob. I just got back from the Wade House in Greenbush, Wisconsin a week ago. a week ago. When the trip first started, I decided to take along my wife, my son, and my brother Henry. This was my experience that I had at the Wade House.

When I first arrived at the Wade House, I had to pay ¢25 to buy a small bed on the third floor of the house. My family couldn’t afford to buy a nice room because I was poor. I had to wash my hands with a pitcher because the Wade House had no sinks to wash your hands. My floor had lots of small bedrooms just like mine.

I liked to hang out with my brother in the Barroom. We got to have a nice drink and relax. But I still missed my wife and son because they weren’t aloud in the Barroom. Instead, they were aloud in a place called the parlor.

In the Dining room, I liked to eat some pork and rhubarb pie. It was the perfect place to talk and have a laugh. When I left the Wade House, I missed the Dining room the most.

I liked to go to the blacksmith shot to see what my friend John the Blacksmith was doing. John the Blacksmith was very nice. I watched him put a piece of iron in fire, and then twisted it into a horseshoe. Watching John the Blacksmith was very cool.

In the kitchen, I saw lots of pots and pans. I even saw a water well. To cook food, we had to use a fireplace.

I thought that the sawmill was important because all of the wood in the wade House was made in a sawmill. I hope that you can go to the Wade House so you could have fun.
