Another Civil War Commemorative Event...150 years Second Battle of Manassas





Demonstration on how to prepare, load, and fire a civil war cannon

Discussions and talk about civil war life

Taking a break and playing cards

Chatting with the young ladies about their garments

I spied a Nikon camera!  Way cool!

The men slept here at night while the ladies slept at a lodge nearby

Getting ready to fire...plug your ears!

Kabooooom!  It was so loud that it shook my camera!

My hubby is a big Civil war buff - he would love seeing this stuff in real life.
Nice captures - I especially like #5 - the civil war era woman carrying a DSLR!

Shirley...thank you. I enjoyed it and it was neat seeing the young lady with a Nikon DSLR.
