the faux bohemian

I cleaned the Gunboat Philadelphia today! Which means that I was standing on the deck of a wooden boat built in the 1770s and under water for 150 years until it was retrieved from Lake Champlain. Which means that I obviously don’t need to diet in the new year.

HEY KIDS! It’s George Washington’s tent! At least, the bag it was stored in. The tent is on loan to Colonial Williamsburg at the moment. I don’t remember seeing it on exhibit there, but hey - it’s better than having it languish in storage here!

Finally watching John Adams, three years after finding Paul Giamatti and a Continental winter encampment on my way to class.
