As I had mentioned earlier, I spend my birthday last week taking the day off work and heading down to Minute Man National Historical Park in Massachusetts.
I had more fun than I probably should have. I think I remember going on field trips to places like this when I was in grade school and not really liking it too much. I never would have thought that I’d willingly want to go learn about history on my birthday. I probably just always assumed I’d be cooler when I was 26. XD
Oh well.
I had a really great time taking photos and seeing the actual places I will be drawing in the next issue of the comic. I also picked up some cool books about 18th century clothing and one specifically about April 19, 1775 with reenactment photographs taken throughout the park. Pretty cool.
I’m definitely going to head down there again in April for Patriot’s Day. I hear they have some cool reenactment stuff that’d I’d love to go to. If you’re ever in the area, I would highly suggest a trip to this place. I dorked out ALL DAY. Make sure you check out the photo gallery I put together below this post. There are stupid captions and everything!
