Colonial Williamsburg, VA


We all enjoyed learning about how the colonists made their shoes, furniture, books, clothes, baskets, tools, and in the picture above a man is teaching us how they made bricks. Although I'm pretty sure no one had tattoos at the time of the revolution.
Greg and Mark were very enthusiastic about all the weapons that were hung on the wall of the governor's house.
Mark, Kalli, Greg and I, all headed to the gallows.

A colonial house.
In front of the Governors Palace where the leaders of the town once lived, including Thomas Jefferson.
Mark checking out the homemade soap balls. They smelled really good.
Learning about colonial medicine.
Mom, Mark and a woman from 300 years ago.
We visited Colonial Williamsburg for two days last week and were able to experience and observe what colonial life was like in Virginia.
