  1. Still getting out on the bike, still learning how to make somewhat interesting videos. Here's an evening roll through the train station at Washington's Headquarters in Valley Forge:

    So, let's talk about 1976. At the time, I was in a "special needs" program at a school way bigger than the 2 room village schoolhouse I had been attending. The teachers at the new school encouraged all the students to write essays about the #AmericanRevolution -- the prize being a trip to Philadelphia to participate in the #Bicentennial. I managed to win the contest with a very graphic essay about #GeorgeWashington's troops in #ValleyForge (mentioning the possibility of #cannibalism -- one of my obsessions at the time, along with Zombies). Anyhow, in order to participate in the parade, we had to dress in period clothes. I *insisted* on having a boy-man's uniform (which I made in a very public interview with the local press), and I got my way! And marched with the boys/men, with the fife and drum squad and flag bearers (I played the flute). Unfortunately, I was there by myself, with no family to take photos of me. But here's a photo of the group I was part of. And bonus... I got to spend the night at Valley Forge, telling my tales of Revolutionary cannibalism!

  11. Walked around Valley Forge National Historical Park last week and was surprised to find hundreds of mason bees nesting *inside* the soldier huts. I'd always assumed they required exterior wood, ideally with direct sun for most of the day. There were also hundreds of Houdini flies lurking around. #ValleyForge #pennsylvania #osmia #bees #insects #history #biology

  15. February was a rough month for #cycling around these parts, so yesterday was the first day I was able to get out. Here are some nice highlights from the #SchuylkillRiverTrail near #valleyforge

  22. Finally got back out for a paddle today – haven't gotten out enough this summer, will try to do some more. We live in an area with no lakes so you have to watch the levels and flow in the river. Today there was plenty of water but the current was easy.

  25. A break in the rain and clouds (the winter's been warm though) got me out for my first real #BikeRide of the year – a quick run along the #SchuylkillRiverTrail to #ValleyForge. There are two old train stations in the park, one fabulously restored and open to the public, and the other, not so much. I'm at the other.

    “The insurrectionists at the Capitol were not patriots. They were trying to overthrow the government in order to take away the right at the center of American democracy: our right to determine our own destiny. Commemorating them as heroes is the 21st century’s version of erecting Confederate statues.”
