One of the women talked about that too. How hard it was for a colonial wife back then and the non stop work. Bizarre. People today couldn't begin to work like these people, and NO INTERNET. I'd be dead.

No air conditioning would be my undoing. I hate heat and humidity.

On a more serious note, how about no modern medicine? The germ theory of disease was nearly 250 years in the future.

It's probably a cake walk compared to what the people in "Frontier House" had to put up with.
