Dave and Susan, Frank and I toured Valley Forge. So much has changed since we picnicked here years ago. Model airplanes were still in flight but the roadways were redirected and the approach to the monument by car had disappeared due to deterioration.
The excitement in Valley Forge was the newest archaeological dig behind the Potts home. Martha Washington had mentioned in a letter about a cabin she and General Washington had shared during the Winter in Valley Forge. The foundations were recently discovered and an investigation into the size and artifacts located on the site was being conducted the weeks prior and following our visit. Unfortunately work had stopped for the weekend so we were not able to watch a any finds in process.
