Eileen and I crossed the street to the Tin Shop, Blacksmith, and Carpenter.  Allen came over, too.

We reached the stocks by the Courthouse in which Allen and I placed ourselves.  


Then we walked on to Merchant Square.  Eileen and I visited Williams - Sonoma and the Scottish House.  Then we took the shuttle back to the Visitors Center and drove to Red Lobster for an early supper.


We watched Pres. Monson and Elder Hales from the Saturday morning session of General Conference.

We went to the Visitors Center on Wednesday 9 October and took the shuttle to the stop by the Magazine.  It was raining and Allen and I went upstairs to see the weaponry and to hear the guide.

We walked to the Court House and enjoyed the very informative presentation by the guide.

From there we visited the shoemaker and the gunsmith & foundry.

The White's went to Merchant Square as Allen was drenched with no umbrella.  Eileen and I enjoyed our visit to the Bruton Parish Church and the George Wythe House.

We joined the White's and returned to the Visitors Center to get our car, thence to the resort for Allen to get dry.  We enjoyed supper at Captain George's seafood buffet.  Delicious!
