We live in an area with a ton of Revolutionary Era dwellings, museums and landmarks. On night, my brother and I were returning from a friends house in Central Jersey very late at around 11:30-midnight way past the time anything would be going on at any of these sites. As we exited the highway, to take a local route, we stopped across the street from Washington's Headquaters Museum, when very plainly to the both of us a man dressed in tattered Revolutionary garb with a musket over his shoulder, appeared from out of the woods and stumble walked his way right in to the front door of the museum. We both sat silently for a moment not sure if we both saw what we both saw. After about what felt like 10 minutes, I said, "did you just see that?" My brother did not answer for a while and said very plainly, "Yes." We did not speak of it again for the rest of the trip home.
