The Revolutionary War Weekend at George Washington's Mount Vernon is the first weekend in May (just one week after the Fort Frederick Market Fair) each year. It is a very busy time for me and the shop! This year was no different.

Mount Vernon is one of my favorite places to be. I do not live that far, so am able to go home each evening. It is always nice to be home. In May, we usually have some rain, so I usually dress in cotton or linens.
This year, I had a twin from Samson Historical! I was honored to be dressed like her. I am always grateful for those who came to help me set up, sell, and tear down. I cannot do it without them, and we always have a great time. There are events that turn hot, it can rain, we can have strong winds, or it can be freezing cold as well. Braving the elements to help me and my horses is never taken for granted. My set up is always evolving to make it easier for setup/tear down but also to help my customers find exactly what they need easily.
