To all Finest Fellows:

How would YOU like to dress like those early American men, with heavy clothing, frilly shirts, handkerchiefs saturated with cologne (no deodorants then!) and often wore wigs?!!!

LOL

No electricity for air conditioning, mind you - no ice for your summer beverages - thank goodness for all our current blessings!

I took my grandson out to Abner's balloon show on Saturday and there was a guy dressed as George Washington. Better he than me.

Amen! We got a pretty good idea of the difficulties of life in colonial Williamsburg while we were there. It took a strength and fortitude that we can't imagine in order to survive the hardships presented to the settlers each and every day. They were a tough and determind lot!
