Entry 18: November 1783


Robert is finally home! We saw each other as a family for the first time in years. We had a HUGE celebration for all of our town's soilders that fought in the war. The British and other Loyalists have begun to flee America. They are going up to Canada, since the Treaty of Paris was signed. General George Washington has resigned, and as you can probably guess, the Continental Army is being disbanded. Now, if I want to continue blogging, I guess I will have to leave this blog, because my "Revolutionary" life is over now. There isn't anything more to say. Everything is over, and there is peace. Goodbye!
