Day 5 My Last Day
Todays my last day in Virginia after greeted by the warm sun and breakfast from my aunt my cousin John says he needs my help. Before i leave to go back to a grueling cold Massachusetts i help John bring all the harvested tobacco to market to sell. John keeps none for him self. I say my goodbyes to my aunt and cousin and begin my trip back to Mass. I dont know when ill see them again.

Day 4
This Morning my cousin tells me we are going to work with the crops. As were in the feilds i could help but notice the man next to me, my cousin says "this is our slave hes been with us for a few weeks now and we sure could of used him for the winter of 1607 we were almost wiped out from the lack of food." At my Johns farm he only plants tobacco but in Mass we plants several crops and herd many animals.

Day 2
I wake up to a warm sunday morning after our breakfast meal we go to church. Its strange going to church here since im a Puritan im not used to the Angelic church. As we leave the church i couldnt help but notice colored men doing work in the fields i ignore my thoughts and proceed home were we work the rest of the day.
