 And now we move on to Williamsburg, VA, one of Daddy's favorite places to visit. Here's the new Yankee Candle store  Lots of holiday theming and cool things to buy  The sky was lit up with "stars" and there's even a train track up there, but it wasn't running, bummer!  Sneaking a photo in Santa's Workshop  Santa was a away for lunch I guess, but let's see who he was checking up on..  Why it's Jared, and he's on the good list, sweet!  A shot down Main Street inside Yankee Candle  Then the family visited Jamestowne Settlement. Here are the Powhatan indian huts  Inside were beds, tools and furs of all kinds  And some leather being dried for tanning  Here's a shot of the fort  And of the ships that brought over the first settlers to America. This is the Susan Constant  And here is the Discovery and the Godspeed behind it  Another shot of the Susan Constant, this time of the stern  Jared gazing across the James River from the stern of the Godspeed  And here's a view off the stern of the Susan Constant  In the crew quarters of the Susan Constant  The family in front of one of the defense cannons for the fort  A building under construction  Inside the church, with nice and comfortable solid wood padding-less benches  Mama and Jared giving a sermon to the church  Watching the blacksmith stoke the fire  And here we have Jared spending some quality Daddy-time visiting Colonial Williamsburg, one of Daddy's favorite places. This is in front of the Bruton Parish church  So yeah, the Bruton Parish church  Here's a shot of the boy in front of the governor's palace  And a loooooonnnnngggg shot in front of the governor's palace  In front of the heavily-defended magazine, where they stored all the gunpowder for the town  Here's a British general coming down the street to greet us loyalists. Ha, loyalists, just you wait sir!  And now back in Michigan, visiting Calder's Dairy, a local farm, with chickens!  Jared watching the cows going in to get milked, mmmm muddy  Here's a mama cow and her new baby, born just the day before!  Jared's a bit hesitant with horses, but cows don't seem to phase him much at all  Moooooooooooooo!  Here's a family of ducks looking for some loose corn  Don't give me any bull  And here's something you don't see every day, an emu  Here's a donkey coming over to be petted  And here's Mama and Jared feeding a friendly goose  He really was friendly, many times geese will be a bit aggressive, especially when you have some corn to feed them  Honk! |
