An ideal setting

A picture perfect fieldstone house on a rolling meadow along a peaceful stream. Split rail fences and fieldstone walls define the edges of the quiet country place. Foot thick walls and worn wooden steps stand as proud witness to great historic efforts. Regular people lived here. Military and political strategies were made here. The house was Washington’s headquarters the winter at Valley Forge. I wonder what will stand as witness of our times some 250 years from now.
