One of our stops on our field trip was Williamsburg, a place I didn't mind seeing again. Certainly the showpiece is the Governor's Palace, which was built in 1721 and took 16 years to construct. Seven governors lived in this house, including Patrick Henry and Thomas Jefferson. It was destroyed by fire in 1781.
I can't imagine the wives had too much to do with this little outpost, based on the decorations. Hundreds and hundreds of swords and guns hang on the walls in various patterns. Very manly!

Williamsburg isn't all that close to D. C.! I went there MANY times during my youth and never grew tired of it.
I have been there many times, but it has been many years since the last trip. we are talking decades and I should go back.
but not in the summer. no.
It's been years since I went to Williamsburg! I remember loving it when I was there.
We're thinking that it's about time to take the kids there!
I've always wanted to go there, but the one time we were anywhere within driving distance (Charlottesville) we didn't have enough time to squeeze it in.
Oh boy...my dad dragged my sister and me to Colonial Williamsburg back when we were teenagers and it was torture. Lol. These days, we go there every third year for our high school's overnight trip. After all these years, I still can't warm up to it. :)
I haven't been there since I was very little. I'd love to go again.
Great shots. I haven't really walked around much with camera in hand.
Great shot. My dad would love to go there!

Shoot... I live in Williamsburg (about 1.5 miles from the historic district). Next time you're coming to this part of the country let me know and I'll zap you some insider tips. :-)
