Took a pre dinner stroll along the NY harbor in Red Hook, Brooklyn and the site of Fort Defiance, one of the many defenses constructed by George Washington in the lead to the Battle of Long Island in August 1776, 250 years ago next month. #georgewashington #battleoflongisland #americanrevolution

272 years ago today a young George Washington with 40 Virginians touch off a bloody skirmish at what is now known as Jumonville Glen. Been there many times, and it is a hauntingly peaceful place. #jumonvilleglen #fortnecessity #frenchandindianwar #georgewashington
