jamestown, va

collision of cultures, east meeting west
where hearty frontiersmen were put to the test
we saw how they lived, we walked in their shoes
we felt for ourselves the conquistador blues
life on a ship, then life on the land
creating a legacy that forever would stand
oh jamestown we thank you for lessons you've taught
some good, some bad, all with honesty fraught

everything old is new again; matt thinks this fashion would totally take off in asia


williamsburg, va

rat a tat tat and a rum de tum tum
the thrill of the fife and the call of the drum
hark back to the past when our country was new
and helpful convenience was clearly to few
the burg of old william, where tom used to walk
dotted with taverns where folks sat to talk
sally lunn bread and wreaths hung with care
an old timey christmas surrounded us there

the whole clan

in the stocks

church and cemetery 

capital building

little girl and little boy waiting outside the bakery

fife and drums

old town alexandria, va

rainy monday, facing the mirror
a contest of laughter soon did appear
who was the victor, who won the crown? 
see for yourself as you scroll your way down
and then to a factory where torpedoes were made
transformed to a spot where artists get paid

funny face contest with matt and little girl




the torpedo factory, now art village
