We went to Yorktown today, visited the Victory Center — It’s a very nice museum devoted to Rev. war history, focusing on the Yorktown battle / victory. Hadsome really great artifacts and some living history demonstrations. We got to hear a mortar from the era fired (very loud), and hear a short lecture on surgical techniques (more art than science).
After Yorktown, we drove a little short of 3 hours north to DC. The streets here are something that takes a little getting used to. I think I’m all studied up for tomorrow – I guess we’ll find out. If we lose anyone on the subway, I’ll be sure to let you know.
