For today's adventure I chose Fort Frederica National Monument. Today was the annual celebration of the fort. I sat down with General Oglethorpe and asked him was the weather this cold on the day of their original arrival. He told me that they actually arrived in June and that it was hot, and he wouldn't be dressed in his red coat but rather his whites. I asked him why we celebrate Fort Frederica in February and he replied that I would have to wait and ask my yet to be formed government. I thought he was very witty and funny, however my dear General I have found that you did in fact come here in February. Here is a link to a simplistic timeline of your life! And here are a couple shots of the day. Do not wait for a "family vacation" to think that you can go to a National Park (and support the National Park Service while doing so!) So grab your waterproof Timberland's and find a trail, or monument or battlefield...
