Still waiting for the service people. LOL! I've gotten so much done the past 2 days, as when I'm waiting for appearances like this I get fidgety, and start baking, cleaning, etc. and of course, I can't go anywhere!

HOB, yes we visited VF years ago. It's an amazing site.

Greene eventually was sent out by Washington to forage and confiscate food, animals, and so forth in the area as the troops were starving. Greene hated this assignment, but he was devoted to Washington, and saw the need of course. He tried his best to only take from the Loyalists, of which there were many.

Yes, Mrs. Liberty - and welcome back! - I read 1776, but my favorite historian is David Hackett Fischer. He doesn't get the attention that McCullough does, but he should - he's an academic who writes well, and if you haven't read his Paul Revere's Ride , DO!

I was wondering if ANYONE showed up..yet.

I bought a tomato plant for a container. Ha! Two were in one small pot. I love when that happens.

Also bought some red Canna to put in containers around the pond.
