American Heritage Celebration
What better way to celebrate Presidents Day than take the grandkids to a American Heritage Celebration which was held at a local Memorial Park (cemetery) appropriately named Mount Vernon. In addition to a fife and drum band, horseshoeing demonstrations, and actors portraying George Washington, Betsy Ross, and Abraham Lincoln, there was also
a spinning wheel demonstration;
a New Pierce Indian with ceremonial regalia worth thousands of dollars;
two baby goats to pet and hold;
and even an old fashioned bicycle (whose rider was taking a break right then).
Except for the wind, it was a perfect day for the activities.
