Look where I went today....
 

This place is WONDERFUL!
 
Today I saw threshing....
 






 
Separating the grain...
 
Start with this...
 
 
 End with that...
 
 
Come look around the farm with me...
 







 
 
This is Alex the mule...
 


He likes to give kisses...
 
Now, let's take a peek inside the
farmhouse of the Longstreet's.
 









 
There was nothing haunted about this place.
I asked!
 

This is the stepping stone that was used
when the family would get out of their carriages.
 
How COOL is that!
 

 
There's a lot to do here at this farm/park.
I'll be spending a lot of time here for sure!
 


 
Can't wait for my next trip
to Holmdel Park.

Monmouth County
Battlefield Reenactment
 
Now this was an AWESOME time!
 



 
I loved reading about the history on this.
Here's what was going on in the camps before
the battle started.
 








 



 
Now for some ACTION!
 






 
At first, the cannons didn't bother me.
But after awhile.... the constant beating
and noise did give me a headache.
 
I only wish I saw some more
special effects... like BLOOD and DEATH.
 
I will have to make a movie with just that.
 
Even some audience members were dressed up for this.
 

Here was the story about
MOLLY PITCHER.
She was a great story teller.

 
Before everything started...
I got to spend time with some actors.
 



 
Here I am enjoying the show
with my cousin.
 

 
I know one day...
he's going to be a blogger too.
 
 
The End
(Ha Ha Ha!)
