General Impression

This weekend the Naper Settlement is holding it's annual Civil War Days, so we took our Australian visitors along to get some sense of American history.

Custer's Last Stand, or at least a general impression of it!

Among the attractions, a petting zoo. How many sheep can you count? One, two, zzzzzz.

Spinning classes provided people with less exercise than the ones we have these days.

Your army needs you! Still recruiting, years on..

The last person I expected to see at a Civil War re enactment was a member of the Coldstream Guards, but apparently they were sent as observers to other wars.

Grumpy puts on a brave face...
