: Hi Sarah, thanks for the welcome.

: I grew up in Darien, an easy bike ride from Rowayton.  I'm in west Stamford now.

: Rowayton's a nice little section.  I actually haven't been through there in several years.  I just read that the bridge of the Five Mile River was condemned by the state a while back, and the Darien folks aren't in any rush to rebuild it.

: So, if you need a good tomahawk, I know where to get one (just kidding!).

: Seriously, what type of gun do you use?  It seems to me I read somewhere the Rangers used fusils that were a bit lighter than the standard Brown Bess.

: : Hi Scott,

: : Greetings and welcome, from one who is practically a neighbor.  I live in southeastern Westchester Co, NY.  

: : Thanks for sharing your story.  It's great to hear people's stories.  It went sort of the opposite for me -- I found this place three years ago because of the movie, and through this wonderful place I found the history.  I now reenact as one of Rogers' Rangers in the F&I War (Pvt. Chauncey Goodrich).  Uh, that would mean Northwest Passage is one of my most favourite books/movies.  And so I must drive through your neck of the woods nearly every weekend!  I have great friends in Rowayton -- are you near there?

: : Also, FYI, 50 ain't old!  Who's been spreading those lies??  Theresa -- don't believe 'em if you hear 'em!!  I'm not there yet but I don't believe 50 is old!

: : Glad to meet you virtually.

: : Cheers,
: : Sarah M.

: : : I'm an old guy.  Three days after the anniversary of Jumonville this past May, I reached my fiftieth year.

: : : I live in a city in southwest Connecticut with my significant other, who prefers to remain a woman of mystery, and our 11 year old son Jonathan.  Jon's older half-brother joins us during college breaks.

: : : I work in the health-care field. 

: : : I've lived in this area most of my life, but was born in Brooklyn, and moved out here when I was 5.

: : 
: : : But coming in a real close second would be Northwest Passage.  As I got older, worldly matters did catch my attention.  There was a war going on, new ideas; possibly a new paradigm, the Woodstock gathering of the tribes (up there in Cooper country).

: : : This is getting a bit long, so let me fast forward a bit.
