Yorktown (6/2/2014)
Early in the morning it was time to pay some bills and stick
them in the mail box in Yorktown.Coming
down the hill there was cruise ship, a big sail boat, and a number of replicas
of older sailboats docked in the harbor.I took this picture from my sunroof, while driving down the road.Just an idea of what was there.Not the best picture I realize, but it gives
you a good idea of an early morning in our sleepy little coastal town.
In that day, Yorktown was preparing for the arrival of the
French.This was a celebration of the
Independence war and the help of the French with the war (La Fayette).It seems that a French Navy vessel was going
to stop by that day for a ceremony
and a 21 gun salute.Pity I missed it,
being a working stiff and having to get going to Richmond.
