Military through the ages at Jamestown, VA

Jamestown, Virginia
Jamestown played host to Military Through the ages. A sailing friend of John's and now a family friend, Miles, participated in this event. We ventured out to provide our support and check it out! We love this kind of stuff! Arrick is thinking of getting into it and well enjoy the sites we took in that day!

This looked kind of fun too!
