Journal Entry , Day 22, Monday, June 21,1976 Washington
Crossing Historical Park,NJ...14mi
Left the fairgrounds at 6:30 am and the
weather was very nice , but about an hour out Dawn went by and said it was
going to rain- and it did. We all got
soaked and it rained off & on most of the morn.

| Going down the road on a rainy morning |
We got in about 12:30.
Lee, Tom & Ranny left for Lancaster
to get the "New" harnesses fixed and I watched the horses & wagon for the rest of
the day. They got back about 10 pm with bells on, Lee bought a set of sleigh bells !
This park is right on the Delaware
River where Washington
crossed into Pennsylvania. It is beautiful on the top of the hill, you
can see for miles. We are only 2 miles
from Pennsylvania,but we will be continuing in New Jersey on a Bicentennial Tour to southern NJ until July 1st. This is not good for the morale.
