Along the Banks of the Roanoke
How We Built Our Lives Here
We came here traveling along a natural highway that we call the
Roanoke River.
We Built Homes With Local Timber
Boats Were Essential to Life Along the River
We Built Everything With Tools Like These
Tools of 200 Years AgoHow Many Do We use Today?
Could you build this without power tools?
No lights, no ‘phone, no AC!
Oil lamps! No electronic communication!
Electricity at work for us!Without electricity and the people who do this work, we
wouldn’t have the world we have today!
