Took these two of the horse trough for you Sharon, beats an old wooden watering trough.

                                 What a stylish way to heat your house.

                                   Interesting reading, posted on slave quarters behind the big house.

                  These blue dishes were recovered from the ocean floor, somehow preserved for a couple hundred years. The same pattern original to this house in Colonial Williamsburg, circa 1700. Original green wall paint color, showed high class back then.

                                                 I like these tall, tall windows and trim.

Thinking warm thoughts.

           Lazy Ohio River. Loafing on a hot day.

 Fishing

 Helping Granny

 He picked it all himself, for his Mommy

  Asure sign of spring

 Trying to get his old pair up into the shoe tree

 Trying to stay out of the sun, my feet were BURNT

 Cooling off in the creek

Oh what a job, my acky, breaky, scraping arm.

                                                    Wanted to post this earlier but this is the first day I've felt good since Christmas Eve. Hope you had a good one.

 And where is Tim? Just look for an interpreter, there you will find him. Weaving a basket at the Powhatan village.

                                                        Talking to a deckhand on  ship.

                                                                              Still talking,

                                                                                and talking,

                                                                              and talking,

                                                               in the gun storage at Powhatan village,

                                                        making shingles

                                                                at the oxen barn,

                                                                 talking to a soldier,

                                                                    at the cabinet shop

                                                             and last but not least, talking to a guy fishing on the beach.

                                                      Nead a hat anyone?

                                                              Take your pick.

                                                                Check the fit.

                                                          Hatpins come with it.

                                                   Outside celler door lock.

                                                         Neat old trunks
