Valley Forge was really interesting. A nice peaceful Sunday afternoon activity. We did go to church in the morning, and drove through the beautiful forested hills. They emphasized that it was at Valley Forge that the American troops matured into an army that was capable of beating the British. Althought they were definitely hungry and not well-clothed, they worked hard during that winter to stay alive and learn army discipline. It was neat to see General Washington's house--80% the way it was in 1777-78.
