After Halloween, I went back to Hartford for a week where GH investigated at Harriet Beecher Stowe’s house. It was actually right next to Mark Twain’s house. I know right, nutty coincidence. Hartford still sucks.
After my second dose of the city of sirens, Ghost Hunters went up to Fort Ticonderoga. It was a Fort used by the French in the French Indian War(1750’s) and was occupied by the British during the Revolutionary War(1770’s). I’d say it is the coolest location that I’ve been to while on this show. It has unbelievable scenery and has a very exciting battle history.
During the filming, I spent a lot of time with the curator of the Fort and he gave me a one-on-one tour of the exhibits. I was amazed at how much the guy knew about every single one of the hundreds of artifacts at the Fort. By the end of the filming I was spiting off facts about the Fort left and right to the rest of the crew. The curator had also given me a play-by-play of how each battle went down. If you stood and looked at the landscape, you could actually see why the French/British Generals made the military maneuvers they did. The highlight of the trip was standing at the top of one of the turrets, looking out over Lake Champlain, picturing the battles unfold.
More good stuff en mañana. Unbelievably long day, too much to talk about.
That’s all for now.
