Love your Williamsburg videos--keep them coming!
Do this back garden walk in the spring. It is stunning. Finish at the Governor Palace and see the tulip gardens in all their glory.
I Love Watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade Every Year on NBC
Not a knock? But I have to say? With all the labor required, to keep these facilities, these dream homes? It is easy to see why they needed slaves
Thank you for sharing, I will likely never be able to travel much, but thanks to videos like this I’m satisfied to share in people’s experience. Will say? The signers of the declaration, were so wealthy? That to this day, their homes are luxurious
Thanks SO MUCH for putting this content together, wonderful work!
You’re very welcome!🎩
You are a gifted story teller, you bring our history alive. Gods many blessings to you and yours.😊
@@user-ud3tl8eu1i Thank you!!🎩
Beautiful festive dream you had sir ! Thanks for sharing all the Beauty Williamburg has at Christmas ❤
Thank you and so glad you enjoyed!🎩Merry Christmas in July! 🎅🎄
The store with the candy apples you saw next door is kilwins where from the wythe candy & gourmet shop I sent a comment for you to make a video there.
@@kateswan1 oh very cool! Yes, i remember & on the list of future video possibilities! Thank you! 🍎🎩
Makes me sad they pretty much closed and became a turkey leg and burger place. My husband and I went there 9 years ago, and it was our favorite tavern out of all the others. It was more affordable and had this amazing crayfish soup that we couldn't get enough of. Not surprised hardly anyone has been to it, judging by the comments. Everyone pays more attention to King's Arms and Chownings.
@@jessblackproductions Hi Jess. This was only a quick concessions style menu they had set up outside during holidays, the tavern wasn’t open during this video, just for seating. They are open now for lunch and from what i understand their full menu. Not sure if they offer the crayfish soup but sounds good.🎩
@QuestCapsule Glad that is the case. I haven't been since that trip 9 years ago. It was for my husband's and my honeymoon and it was the 1st and only time I had been. We hope to go next year for our anniversary, and we keep thinking about Shields, lol. The soup made us buy the cookbook.
Scott, Another fantastic video and thank you for digging into the details of the Geddy shop and home. A site we've visited many times but as always, I find your attention to detail and artistic view of these wonderful CW buildings fancinating, educational and entertaining. We were recently reminded there are 88 original houses, shops and structures nestled within the CW area. I thought of you immediately and what an interesting Quest it would be for you and Sarah to create a series of videos locating and exploring each of the 88 original sturctures. Maybe an in depth study on the more complicated ones and a compilation of the minor structures but which are still treasured original items to preseve and explore. Just a thought of a direction for you to add your magic to. Stay well and we can't wait for the next quest.
@@scottwieser3829 Thank you Scott! Great ideas!! Ironically, The next one up might be dabbling in this area a bit. Haven’t made an announcement yet but will be soon. In the works now! Thanks again!🎩
Amazing
@@kevinsscooteradventuresand1005 Thank you!🎩
Thank you for all of your hard work to offer these videos of Colonial Williamsburg to anyone whom might want to actually learn Americas history. 😊
You’re very welcome!🎩
We went around Cade's Cove twice and did not see any sighting of a bear. We heard of a cub sighting. Honestly was very disappointed.
Ahhh, sorry! Maybe next time!🐻
The ginger cakes are the best!! First had them as a Girl Scout in 1960 while on a trip with our troup!!! Still bake them at Christmas today!!!! Williamsburg is a family favorite place always!!!❤❤❤
@@claireburkus8497 They are delicious! A great Christmas tradition you have!💙🎅 🎩
First let me say, sorry for your loss. Secondly: yes…another CW video and history lesson! Appreciate all your efforts!
Thank you Dave! Means a lot!
Why is it closed?
I believe it remained closed for a while since the start of Covid….it’s now open during lunch hours.
What an awesome show.
@@MegaGator39 I agree!!
When I worked at Colonial Williamsburg 45+ years ago the interpreters at the Geddy said the "Geddy spoon" was found by a child walking through the garden.
Ive read in the 1967 excavation in the silty soil near a well onsite, 4 teaspoons, and then 1 repaired tablespoon that belonged to James Geddy, II was found. The repaired tablespoon is thought to have been a part of set of 12, as there was an ownership engraving showing the number (12) and James and Elizabeth Geddy's initials (I 1G2 E).The tablespoon didn't have a makers mark though...but 3 of the 4 the teaspoons had their makers initials. 2 of the teaspoons had James Geddy, II initials (IG), and the 3rd teaspoon found had a (BH) mark, an unknown silversmith. The 4th one had (RS) initials, the unidentified owner of the teaspoon. It was the spoons marked (IG) and the one thought to have been owed by the Caldwell family (seen in the Art Museum in the video) that would have helped solidify that the 1930 dig at the Governors Palace that turned up a silver teaspoon with (IG) and its owners initial marking on it (The Ayscough Family) was probably made by Geddy. I haven't heard about the young girl who found one walking through the garden area but it definitely wouldn't be surprising with the amount of metal and artifacts they found on the site. Very interesting and so neat you worked there then! Thank for sharing!🎩
@@QuestCapsule you have so much great info. I really enjoy your videos. In the summer the buildings had over 2000 people a day from all over the world. Not much variety in our demos. As fast a we could explain our craft we started over for the next group. The guest really made the job great. I remember going to the Geddy to pick figs during lunch....who needs silver when there is food.
@@annscrafts2965 Wow, that's so many...very interesting! Thank you, so glad you enjoy the videos. Gotta love a good fig, especially a Geddy-grown one!🎩
I’ve been to the smokies, but I never saw any bears nor been to caves cove, but when I was in Yellowstone, I saw one black bear with brown markings on it on the way to mammoth hot springs.
Alot of Taverns in Williamsburg back then...
I always learn something from your videos. I have been to CW over 40+ times but I still learn something every time I watch your videos.
@@ronnielloyd4514 Thank you,really glad to hear this!🎩
I love feeling as if I'm back in Williamsburg. Thank you
You're welcome Gail! Hope you make it back soon!🎩
Excellent video again! You obviously put a LOT of effort into research. No one has the perfect voice for narrating this type of historical info like you do, and the way it's put together...Watching your boots makes me feel like I'm there, walking alongside an old friend! Hello to beautiful Sarah, please! Looking forward to the next tour with y'all. Thank you both SO much for blessing us with your talents. May God keep you safe, healthy and happy until we "meet" again.
Thank you Beth for your wonderful comment! Sarah says hello! Have a great week!🎩
I did not investigate this I just knew off the top of my hat that the leaf you said was a cool leaf is actually a sycamore tree leaf... I think somewhere in my childhood I had some Botanical lessons go figure. 😊
I believe you! I always appreciate when people can clarify tress and leaves I know very little about! Thank you! 🍁😊
I can't remember if I've already left a comment yet or not but your words of wisdom at the end of the video brought tears to my eyes thank you
You’re very welcome! Thanks so much Sally!! Have a great week!☀️
I was born nearby Williamsburg and visit annually. We visited regularly when I was a child and I’m sure it stirred my interested in history. It is amazing that these important buildings of the past were intact during the revolutionary and civil wars! It’s exciting to see there is constant excavations in the historical are and all of the wonderful findings to add to the collection. Wonderful video, voice and music!😊
CW truly is amazing! Thank you for your kind comment!🎩
Thank you . Excellent research and videography.
Thank you Stephen!🎩
I went in this today it was my first ever haunted house and it actually wasn’t that bad to me but definitely made me scared here and there
Oh and on top of everything else I've complimented you on I love your background music it's always Perfection keep up the great work
Thank you Sally!!🎩
Thank you for another great episode Scott. Very informative and fascinating. I’ve already watched six times….
Thank you! So glad you like it!🎩
As always, a very beautiful and educational video! Love your passion for Colonial Williamsburg!❤😊
Thank you Marieh!🎩
The candy there is very yummy! Could you do an Ice cream video at Kilwins or Baskin-Robbins?
Sounds like a delicious idea!!!😎🍨
I love williamsburg. I used to go visit my cousins and my one cousin who loved it as much as me and I would go to Gettysburg every time we came to visit .that might be once a month. I know when we had to give a talk in school about what we done on summer vacation, I told them that I had watched the movie at the visitor center 17 times I always planned my tours according to the bathroom stops in Williamsburg
Watching The Story of a Patriot is an excellent way to begin any day in CW!🎩Great memories you have of summer vacation!
I know when I see a video from this channel that it will be excellent in both content and videography, with outstanding voice over. Have you ever considered making some type of historical/colonial documentary that could be sold to schools, libraries and anyone that has a desire to learn more of our heritage? Also, travel sites and Virginia tourism. Many options and possibilities. I'm just tossing that out there. I really feel that this should be shared and enjoyed by more than RUclips. Hope this finds both you and Sarah well and happy! I hope you both had a wonderful 4th of July!
Thank you Cathy! These are great ideas! We definitely hope to continue expanding the overall reach on RUclips and well beyond! The places you mentioned would be great to connect with. We appreciate you very much!
We saw 13 bears the last time we were in Cades Cove. It was a rainy day, so don't let that discourage you from going. We also have begun a practice of donating $1 for each bear we see -- plus extra! Have fun and enjoy!
What time of day is the best time for july?
@@christyhatton109 We usually go the first thing in the morning, at sunrise. But on this trip, in the rain, it was 7:15 in the evening. Have fun!
My happy place ❤ the most we ever seen was 18 in one trip around. I always try to bet the record. Lol
Who is keeping all this in shape, and why.
I am digging this background music. This video was produced very well.
Thank you!
This is fabulous! Could any of you on this thread recommend any more really good documentaries on RUclips about the 18th century in America?🎉
