Visiting Washington’s Last Encampment (7/21/2012)

Not far from the Cantonment which was presented in a couple of previous posts lies the location of Washington’s Last Encampment. The buildings have been skillfully reconstructed and if you are in the area you should add this part to your exploration as well.

Whew. This is the most history that I have had in my world in years but I was loving it. I hope that you are as well. There is a little more to come before I headed home.
