Back from Vacation

We are back from Virginia. We spent a week at a timeshare in Williamsburg. It was Governor's Green, and it was very nice. Tom and Peg and Jack and Peg came with us. The guys golfed while we shopped. We spent one day going to Shirley Plantation, which was a very nice place. The tour was interesting. Robert E. Lee's mom grew up there and he loved the place.
We also had a wonderful day touring Jamestown, Va. Wow! That place is awesome, really giving you a look at life at the beginning of our country: the film, the gallery, the Native American village, the boats, and the actual Jamestown settlement. Incredibly interesting. Walt joined the guys for golf, and Sharon came and joined us at the Williamsburg Pottery. On our last night, our 38th anniversary, we ALL went out to dinner at Uno Chicago Grill. Lovely night out.
Williamsburg got taken over by the British while we were there; it was fun to boo and yell at them as they went by on horseback.
So, we did lots of shopping, lots of sightseeing, and had some fun. Oh, we went through the Yorktown battlefields TWICE; we visited the Williamsburg Vineyard and had a very Euro style lunch. Delicious. I will put pictures later.
