Holy cow!!! The wife and I went to a Civil War Re-enactment yesterday in Livingston Texas. Never seen ANYTHING like that before!!
Tons of BP guns (most not really well cared for), booths people tough enough to sleep on the ground in the rain and mid 30 degree temps. Let's say the weather could have been better.
Mounted cavalry, skirmishers and ARTILLARY!!! My ears were ringing most of the way home after being within a hundred yards of a 12 pound gun.
I've joked with my wife about wanting a cannon for a while, after attending this weekends festivities I think she may worry that I'll really do it now. I wish!!
