When you say you bring CW to kids are you referring to the CW electronic field trips?<br /><br />Diane: To hear that you share fashion sense with a colonial governor of Virginia does not surprise us at all.<br /><br />Kathryn: your request has been forwarded to Lily.<br /><br />Thanks for the advice about the tongue. That sounds like a much better excuse for refusing the dish than simply because it looks icky.Mr. Riggenbachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11794236758126578018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1271879804911490046.post-37637621250124903792009-11-21T11:02:34.084-06:002009-11-21T11:02:34.084-06:00Fun pictures!

That dress is gorgeous... if Lily reproduces it, tell her to make it a little too long for her so that I can wear it too. :-) She can wear high heels!<br /><br />Ok... tongue... it just may be *THE* most disgusting food I have ever seen.

But I have to admit that what caught my eye most in that picture is the green checked fabric of the pillow in the bottom left hand corner... It looks identical to the fabric of my everyday kitchen linens! Quite the boost to my poor well worn napkins' self esteem, I must say.<br /><br />As for Queen Charlotte and her ears... maybe she was secretly an <b><i>elf</i></b>!Diane Shifferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03449110271720365988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1271879804911490046.post-68988658282352021502009-11-21T10:12:02.823-06:002009-11-21T10:12:02.823-06:00This is my first visit to your site, and I'm d...This is my first visit to your site, and I'm delighted to stumble across this entry about Williamsburg. I teach Colonial History, and would KILL for a job at CW, but it's a dreadful commute from the Baltimore area, so I settle for bringing CW to kids who will probably never get there. Poor Queen Charlotte - she certainly had a rough go, didn't she?Lady Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10608765381189723792noreply@blogger.com
