FEATURE: 'Ingenuity of our ancestors'
Ginger Kruger of Midland, right, picks up an antique agricultural book while cleaning a log cabin with Joyce Wolfgang of Midland, who dusts with a feather duster to keep the displays at the Sanford Centennial Museum pristine Saturday morning in Sanford. "We know what a lot of the things in these displays do because we lived through using them with our parents and grandparents, but I bet generations of people come in here and have no idea," Kruger said. "It's amazing to think of the ingenuity of our ancestors and what they were able to do before we had all the electronics we have today."
