As anyone who knows me well can tell, I have a few passions, one of which is history; since I live in the northeast the rich history of the Revolutionary War comes to life frequently. One great pleasure I had recently was doing the Scott Kelby World Wide Photowalk in the northend of Boston-pictures will come soon, I promise!
Old Sturbridge Village being just up the road more or less, was the setting for the most recent re-enactment of a revolutionary battle. Not real sure if it was fictious or a real battle, but the encampments were real, the re-enactors were real and the whole town was alive with the bustle of army camp.
Friends Bill and Ellie invited me to go with them and we had a fabulous day. Sun! Picnics and great conversations with the actors, who have a real passion for these events. A great day.

And of course the kids: it was great to see so many real familes especially with the little kids and teenagers.
