A Battery of Cannons

We are finally off the road for awhile, we put 11,000 miles on the
truck, did stay in Indiana a month camp hosting and visiting with
family and friends.  We also became new grandparents again last week,
that makes 4 boys and 3 girls (first girl in 12 years, Lara Elizabeth Henry)

We are at Chickamauga National Military Park in Fort Oglethorpe, Ga.  We really
like it here and are learning so much about the Civil War, this is the
oldest and largest Military Park in the Nation.  We work two days here
and two days at Lookout Mountain.  We are the only RV Volunteers here
so pretty much have the whole 5300 acre park to ourselves.  We will be
here 2 months then on to Florida for 2 months.  Then back to Georgia
again at Fort Pulaski for the winter.

They asked us to take pictures here at some of the living history and
cannon firings, they may use them in their next brochure  We were able
to get some pretty spectacular shots.

Cannons at Chickamauga

This picture that we took during the 149th was posted on the Chickamauga National Park Facebook page.

Took these pictures the other day at Chickamauga National Military Battlefield

Was told by one of the Rangers at Point Park on Lookout Mt that this picture will be on next years annual pass for the park.


Two weeks left at Chickamauga, then off to Florida.  Had to get a towable car for Teresa to pull behind the motor
coach.  Teresa is now doing all the driving due to new medication I'm on, but she is doing a great job.  Still no word from DC Booth about next summer, but we haven't given up yet.
