This event took place on June 9-10 and is one of the best Revolutionary War Re-enactments I've seen in this immediate area. No battle actually took place in Bordentown, though a number of skirmishes did take place in the area. Despite that fact, there was a LARGE turnout of Continental, Britsh, Hessian, Loyalist, and French troops performing for the public. The soldiers put on a marvelous performance!!! I have a slew of photos from the event right here: http://lrichters.smugmug.com/gallery/2977950. Please feel free to stop in and have a look. I met up with Ben Newton of the 4th Battalion Royal Artillery and we chatted briefly after the event. Ben, it was was nice to finally meet you in person! I found out I had something in common with Ben: a Border Collie afraid of loud noises...LOL. Ben, if you check in, here's my Clara at Molly Pitcher's well: Linda
Linda, Fabulous photos--thanks so much for sharing them. They even had Hessians, eh? Very impressive. It sounds like a very well-done event. Good looking border collie. Susan grew up with them. They're too smart for their own good. Eric
Linda & Clara Great pictures. When I clicked on your website it worked. When I entered it on Google it didn't work? I would like to send the site to the Crown Forces. Help? FYI Monmouth 23-24 June, Brandywine 8-9 Sept. Smaller but nice. Good picture of your Collie. YMH & OS, Ben & Belle
Hey Eric, Even THE FRENCH were there!!! Glad you enjoyed the photos. Thanks for looking. Yeah, those Border Collies are too smart for their own good. Mine knows how to open doors. We have latches and no knobs. She knows to jump up on the latch and either pull or push to get where she wants to go. As a pup we were not able to lock her out of rooms! Linda
