Stairs and Trees


We bought a "Be a Tourist in Your Own Town" pass this year which has allowed us to go to lots of the historical sites in the area. This past weekend we went to Patriots Point to the USS Yorktown and then on Monday to Middleton Place. Both were fairly good for the kids compared to the museum of the week before.




I had been to the Yorktown before about 20 years ago but now with two small children things were different considering the lure of the stairs for our resident "mountain goat" aka Livy. She loved the stairs but Ian was a bit hesitant. The submarine was even better having to pass the kids through the openings!





Middleton Place, to the kids, was just a big open park for running and jumping. We did what we could to contain them in a historic location. I just love the big oak trees and told Brett I felt I should be in a hoop skirt.
