Williamsburg, Virginia, USA. My borrowing a song title from the musical Hello Dolly in the title, the fife and drum band led a small contingent of local regiment soldiers down The Duke of Gloucester Street to the town green. With the theme of 'Revolutionary City', Colonial Williamsburg reenacts a variety of scenes from the 1770s.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Think it's time that Caedes provides us sound Thad. Would complete the impression of this very interesting scene. But I have a vivid imagination so that I'm almost marching along, lol.
Thanks for a wonderful addition to this series my friend.
