I visited the Miller-Cory House for the first time since I've moved to Westfield. This is a cool trip to take if you live locally, and don't mind spending an hour or two learning about local history. I recommend if you've never been!
I had the honor of portraying General Washington. I read a book, called the generals dog to children and two adults. It was a wonderful day.
