On Saturday, our good friends, the McBrides came up from North Carolina for a visit. We had a blast with them too. We went to Williamsburg. Besides the fact that it felt 30 degrees warmer than I expected, it was a great little trip. Our highlight was eating lunch in the basement of a tavern. This man came hobbling slowly down the stairs, and was bantering to us the whole time we were eating. He was supposed to be the owner of the tavern and was all dressed in character and speaking as if we lived in the colonial era. We learned from him that they don't have outhouses, merely "parlors of creativity". Henceforth, it shall be known as that. He did not break character once, it was impressive.
