The re-enactors fired off a cannon every half hour on Saturday, and gave instruction in muskets, fencing, and how soldiers lived during a war.
To refresh ourselves, my sisters and I joined some dear friends on a visit to Williamsburg on Saturday afternoon.
Being of Scottish heritage, we Marshall girls enoyed the Scottish store, and even found our 'clan' crest!
Saturday evening closed with a magnificent play about the marriage of John Rolfe and Pocahantas, and an excellent firework display!

Many thanks to my father for taking us on this trip, and to Vision Forum for organizing this event!
Love the photography there. Glad to see the festivities. Looks like that was a lot of fun? Nice ship shots. Good to see Louis, he's a mighty good looking little guy. Gotta love that war, it keeps being resurrected just for the fun of it.
