STEPPING BACK TO THE 17th CENTURY

Don't remember anyone saying, "those were the good old days!" It cooled off today and we strolled the streets of Colonial Williamsburg until our feet ached. They really do an amazing job of taking you back...with blacksmiths, silversmiths, wig makers, fife and drum, debates with Patrick Henry etc. The kids were impressed, and you could tell they were curious about the founding of the country...they all wanted a copy of the Declaration. From the founding documents and Williamsburg to Washington D.C.
Tomorrow is Busch Gardens roller coaster heaven (It's a surprise shhh!) We'll be on Assateague island Thursday night "dry camping" without Internet till Friday. We miss everyone but we're starting to get the hang of being "off the grid". My cell phone battery has been dead for 48 hours and I'm not sweatin it...really, well, just a bit.

Hi Rob,
I've been reading about your exploits. Have fun! I'll be following your journey. Thanks for promoting Bisbee (makes my job of promoting Cochise County a bit easier!).

They say that with Bisbee, you can only step back to 1965!
