More Notes from the Road

Yep. We're still on vacation. Today we rolled into Williamsburg, Va. The Williamsburg area comprises a historical triangle referred to as Historic Williamsburg, Jamestown, Yorktown triangle. We stopped in downtown Williamsburg and strolled around the charming colonial shops. I came across a cool little shop called The Toymaker of Williamsburg. It's a cool little store that sells a variety of toy soldiers and train sets.

As is common with many wargamers, another one of my hobbies is history, particularly military history, so I was in my glory visiting the Yorktown Battle site. To stand on the spot where so many men fought and died during the birth of our nation was pretty humbling. But by the time got to the site, the visitor's center was closed, so we found a place to stay for the night and we'll head back in the morning. Oh, and as luck would have it, I found a game shop in the area that supposedly carries Warmachine merchandise. I'll be checking that in the morning too. But in the meantime, check out this piece that I picked up from the Toymaker shop.
