(Brad Davis/The Register-Herald) Visiting Florida resident Peyton Combs, left, turns the handle as Beckley resident Linda Benko, right, watches WVU Extension Services' Dean Hardman guides them through a rope making process, scaled-down to bracelet size Saturday afternoon at the Youth Museum's Mountain Homestead. WVU Extension Services sent its traveling "History in a Wagon" program from their Jackson's Mill location to give youngsters an idea of the type of activities and lives early pioneers experienced. Kids learned how to make rope and candles the same way early settlers would have.
