One of the old stockades from the time of the French and Indian Wars? How much was destroyed?

Williamsburg was “powerfully boring”? That must have been a long time ago.
Then again, maybe I just have an overly strong sense of history.

Well, I've toured a number of other sites that were much more appealing from a historical perspective (and I would include both Jamestown and Plymouth in this regard) - watching women churn butter just doesn't strike me as all that interesting.

Watching women churn butter isn’t exactly riveting – but watching the gunsmith make a Kentucky Rifle from scratch, watching the printer and cooper, the militia drilling, reenactments of court and other public events were interesting to me.
