Day 260 of 365 - Ready, Aim, Fire!

This weekend is the Federal Army Homecoming. During the Civil War, Union Army soldiers were camped in the Gallipolis City Park. Every April Reenactors camp out in the park to demonstrate Civil War life. On Saturday evenings they have an artillery drill. This evening I took the boys down to watch and see about getting a few photographs of the canon firing.

Here are a few more pictures of the canon firing.







Also the camp at the Gallipolis City Park.
