Just spreading the word that this weekend (April 18th and 19th) there will be a living history timeline event at Marietta Mansion (5626 Bell Station Road, Glenn Dale, MD) that is open to the public for a nominal fee ($8/adult, $5/ages 5 & older, FREE/4 & under) from 11am to 5pm both days. A timeline event is one in which there are many groups of living history interpreters and/or re-enactors organized into small groups where each group is interpreting a different time. Groups will be there representing Romans, Vikings, Medievals, Tudors, American Revolution, Napoleonics, American Civil War, both World Wars, and many other periods. The manor house itself is interesting as well, and weather is expected to be great.
La Belle Compagnie will be there, and I will be with La Belle. Come on out and see a fun event and learn a little history. Children and students of history generally love these events.

Hat tip to CharGirlGenius for the reminder to get out the word.
