An afternoon in Colonial Williamsburg.

One of the many benefits of where we live now, is there is SO much to do in a very close proximity to us. We are going to take advantage of as much of it as we can while we live here!

The first weekend after Dale got home we headed over to Colonial Williamsburg, which is only about 30 minutes away. We went ahead and got an annual pass, so we can go back as often as we want.

The weather couldn't of been more perfect, another benefit of living here is the weather...the fall season tends to last all the way into December. The colors of the trees are amazing!

If there is a tree...Taylor will climb it!

It was fun to see all the people walking around in their period clothing and acting as if it were 1776.

Loved listening to these young men! They had to be in high school, but they were very good!

I will let him take pictures with my camera whenever he wants if I can get smiles like this all the time!

Stay tuned for our next adventure...NYC!!!

Neat place to visit! That "off with your heads" picture gave me the shivers though, haha!
