Not long after we arrived, I ran into a Confederate General and wished him a good morning. He looked back solemnly and replied, "It's a good day for a war."
The number one thing you have to remember about historical reenactors is that they take it very, very seriously.

| If you're a young lady in need of an escort, you could do worse than a Confederate officer and two soldiers. |

| Shawnee? Miami? Delaware? Whichever, this Native American tossed me a look that told me his next words were going to be "Yes, ma'am". |
 |
| It appears Benjamin Franklin stopped by to visit this general of the War of 1812. Never mind that Ben passed away in 1790. |

| Okay, so the costumes aren't perfect: For instance, the fancy digital camera carried by this young lady seems a trifle anachronistic. Maybe Doctor Who gave it to her? While we were signing books, a kid touched my camera and asked if it was an old historical model. Ahem ... it was not. |
