Jamestown Settlement

At the entrance are flags for all fifty states...

You enter in through the Gallery and see...

As you proceed down the path...


its a woodsman's camp...

look...a bird...


next is the Indian Village...





inside the huts...


Look Indians?



What's down this path?








photo op...





who are those people?

another path...
showing you how to make a "dugout" canoe



it's the garden and the fort...


step up for a cool drink?

Welcome to the fort...






a wealthy man's home...

garden by the front door..

glass window

buffet brought from across the ocean.


tile fireplace surround

the community church

the community water well.
off to the kitchen to bake some bread...


the chicken house is off to one side of the house, but where are the chickens?
Oh...there they are over in the shade...they were scratching around for bugs.



Over there under the bushes there's some more...



See the vegetable garden growing by the front door, I think these were greenbeans. Notice how they have the poles laying against the house for them to climb up.

the outdoor kitchen.

the ultimate in an outdoor oven.

Thank you for visiting...please come again.

I've always wanted to see Jamestown, now I feel I have, from the comfort of my recliner. Thanks for the pics.
