Thank God for other homeschoolers who plan field trips! Two weeks ago, we got to visit Smith's Castle--a home owned by Richard Smith, who owned a trading post in the 1600's. During King Philip's War, the property was taken over by Massachusetts & Connecticut troops as headquarters while they fought the Native Americans.
Eli too these pictures of me & Steve:
After we left Smith's Castle, we stopped for a picnic lunch before heading to the Gilbert Stuart Museum. You know the picture of George Washington that is on a one dollar bill? Well, Gilbert Stuart painted that, and he was born in RI.
