Williamsburg was Wonderful!

We ventured down to Virginia yesterday. We picked up my sister and then headed to Williamsburg...beautiful drive. Here's Sarah looking pretty cool in some colonial glasses. She was thrilled to pick up a fife and has been trying to figure out all the fingerings.
Lisa and her oldest sister, Sharon. We couldn't talk Sarah into this kind of torture. These guys were rather serious about their punishments back then. We've been watching the DVD history of John Adams over the last couple of weeks. It made Williamsburg so much more fascinating. What an amazing portion of our history took place in this part of the country.
Sarah AND her Aunt Sharon have always loved horses!
The last building we went in was the Governor's Palace. This is just a small sampling of the stash of weapons that were kept there. We had a great time re-living what life would have been like during the founding of our country.
Back at Sharon's house we had a great dinner. My niece Pam and her new beau came down for dinner. It was fun to see her...she's a hoot and a half. Actually this picture is kind of fun...it would be of my mom and dad's oldest grandchild and their youngest grandchild...a 36 year difference between the two!
