Williamsburg Again

 Another, shorter visit to Williamsburg allowed us to see a highland music show, the George Wythe house, a portrayal of a slave overseer and other sights.




Then off to our campground, Sherando Lake. On the way we saw a black bear run across the highway. Unfortunately, a car ahead of us couldn't stop in time and knocked it on it's side. Fortunately, the bear survived the impact, got back up and ran off. The car drove on also. It all happened too fast to take pictures.

Then we camped in another free site nearby. Summer relaxed while the rest of us bathed in the river. The cicadas were very loud.
