4/4/17 Thomas Cole NHS & Saratoga

Vicki, Linda and I to Thomas Cole site which I erred because it really isn’t open until May. We got to walk the grounds and chat with Ranger and workers. The views which artist Thomas Cole painted were viewable from his home, even though it was foggy. Then to Saratoga where the Rangers were especially friendly and knowledgeable. Uniforms of Revolutionary available to try on. French help to our new nation made such a difference! It’s amazing our country made it through those difficult times-for which I am grateful. Looked up ancestors on database to find many who participated at Saratoga. The Battlefield tour route was closed bEcause of icy road conditions. Drove by Racetrack and stopped for a bite to eat in Saratoga-good time! Then to Psychic Experiences group meeting at Unitarian Church in Rock Tavern. Be inspired by whatever it is that inspires you!
