Today we celebrated Veteran's Day in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. The town was designed to look like life in 1830. In this photo fife and drummers put up the flag. We saw sheep, oxen, cows, turkeys, and chicken. We rode on two wagons with Belgian horses. We visited the school, the cooper's shop, the black smith, the tin smith, the lumber mill, the grist mill, the candle maker, the banker, the general store, the drug store and the school. We spent the whole day outside enjoying the nice weather, the animals and the atmosphere. We ended staying a lot longer than we intended. Hearing the clippity clop of horse's hooves as we rode in the wagon over a covered bridge was awesome!
