One of my favorite places is Williamsburg, VA where we spent the day remembering history lessons of long ago. Tamra and I visited the Governor's Palace, the Court House, the wig maker, the blacksmith, the wheel maker and more. We participated in an interactive reenactment of a real trial that occurred in the mid 1700s. The day was a perfect day with blue skies and a light breeze.
This is the Governor's Palace with the Lion and Unicorn, symbols of Brittain.
This is what happens when you let a man do the decorating.
The bookbinder is showing how to bind a book.
One's status and career choice dictated the type of wig worn.

Pending weather, we hope to continue our journey southward tomorrow.
