Colonial Dorchester State Park

On Friday while Dana and my mom were wedding planning, the rest of us hit up Colonial Dorchester State Park, which is a few miles from my parents' house. Its an historic site that dates back to the 1700s.  Intact remains include a brick bell tower of a church, a fort used in the revolutionary war (in the begining by the Americans and in the end by the British), and a cemetery.   I loved the history -- the dogs and the boys loved the open space to run around.

Miles had fun playing photographer.  Was glad that my dad was there to capture it!

As always, Uncle Jason provided serious entertainment.  From shooting cannons (with tennis balls) to sword fighting (with sticks) to creating his own Swamp Monster, they boys were delighted.  Noah even let Jason deck him out (photo of Noah by my dad).

It was a fun spot -- look forward to running around there again!
