They're On Beekman Time

For the living history actors at Beekman House, it's always 1911.  Visitors to the 1875 home would find life in the Beekman house very believable.  Kitchen helpers heat water for dishwashing, Mr. Beekman is currently away on business, and no phones or electricity help their way of life.  Visitors smell fresh baked bread, feel the wood-burning stove and hear stories from Mrs. Beekman of the Oregon Trail at 14.
