Williamsburg part 2 (and more)

OK, if there is a theater I am going to pose in front of it.
The kids pose with Thomas J!

I found a Scottish Tartan Shop. They researched my family name and it turns out we are from Fyfe. The picture of the Tartan (plaid design) below is the area's tartan. So if your family didn't have a specific design then you used your regions tartan...so that be ours.
Beary Cute!


Victor Bought a real quill...not MIC (made in China) Made in UK)
walking Williamsburg.

The garrison and guard house.

Miles got in trouble.


A local character. naturally Lukas and James stuck up a conversation about the music of the times and our show.
Look Santa on Vacation!

Luba (mentioned in part 1) poses with us. He made the trip fun.
If you are going to visit Williamsburg you will need to spend nearly $40 per person to get a pass to visit and participate most of the historical stuff. Being Scottish and being poor we passed on the pass and did a free walk. We got to meet some of the characters but missed out on the interactive stuff. We also missed out on dining at the taverns due to long lines and Titus' impatience. Also the prices WOW!
So we hit the Golden Corral on our way to shopping after the historic stuff. Everyone ate until they were bloated.
Then we hit the outlet mall. It too was crowded. Mami and Miles got new shoes and I got a small rug for the tiny hall in the RV. Nick wanted to buy some Boze headphones but left his money behind....it was costly...so he didn't get them.
A quick trip to the grocer and we were back at the RV park. SOme folks hit the pool. Some folks went off and did their own thing. I went on a mouse hunt for Buttercup. I found a Petco on the navigator and balabingbalaboom! Also had other chores at other stores. By the Petco I found a Ross, Cynthia's fav. But there are no Ross' in Ky so she has been wanting to visit one while on tour. So I went back got her and took her to Ross....she didn't buy anything. In fact, she talked herself out of getting this great dress and these nice shoes even when I offered to buy them. Shes' been wandering the RV park muttering her regret ever since.
Well, early to rise and off on the 90 minute drive to Courtland for the fair tomorrow.
