Playing Tourist

Last Sunday we decided to play tourist in our new surroundings. We visited a battleground literally right down the street from us. Very cool.




This one is known as "The Dictator" It shot motors over 2 miles away, During the Civil War.


 Replica of a meeting place for soldiers.




"The Crater" During the War they exploded a mine here that caused a huge crater in the earth. Then a huge battle ensued. I think they said like over 4,000 people died at this site.
