Beautiful! I like how you say it transports us back to that reality. I think of my foremothers like Abigail Adams eho carried on at home working hard doing the household chores and running the farm while John was away. They get way too little credit for their contributions.

I agree. Women were so influential even though their side of the story never gets told.

I remember getting up early and taking my kids to watch the re-enactments. Thinking about what folks did in the past to bring us to where we are now is awe inspiring. Visiting spots like Plimouth Plantation and Sturbridge Village was also eye opening and educational for all of us.

Yes, exactly. Thanks for bringing those two sites to mind, Suzanne. They are amazing. Plimoth Plantation was especially meaningful to me given that some of my ancestors settled there.
