Ticks are now active at VF. I saw one crawling on my pants leg, but was able flick it off. Poison Ivy is coming up, too. So have a care when bushwacking across the Grand Parade.
When Abraham's father visits him in prison in the episode he comes carrying a small bag saying he has something that will help him. Shortly after they get into an argument and his father closes the bag and takes it with him and leaves. Do we ever know or find out exactly what he had brought there to help him? Do we just assume it's a blanket or Bible or something?
February 4 1778. Dear Ma and Pa, I write you today at our darkest hour. The camp is quiet now, the autistic screeching died down with the latest snowfall. Morale is fading by the hour. Deserters have left our lines in recent days, some have even defected to the camp of Lord Melvin. Frostbite plays havoc even with diamond hands it seems. This precious revolution may be on its last legs: our supply lines are in disarray, even the support of the Duke of Cramer may have come too late for us. If we die here in the winter of our discontent, remember us. Honour our leader, George DFV Washington, and fight on in our stead so that the embers of liberty do not die with us. Your retarted son.
