So my friend & I went to the July 4th "event" today. Waited around for someone to greet us so we could purchase a ticket. Finally some rude woman in the gift shop sold us tickets. The place is not a museum, it's an "art" gallery. Nothing was going on at the historic house. There was some sort of naturalization program taking place. A bunch of costumed volunteers standing around talking. Maybe about 10 visitors? Parents were using the colonial village as a sort of playground for their kids so we didn't go in that area. My friend & I thought there would be some sort of colonial themed something going on since it's a colonial era museum or should be. I was really surprised that none of the buildings on the historic site were open or had any activity. I would have asked for my money back but the rude woman seemed like she might scream if I did.
