Thanks for the heads-up post. I had heard about this. They certainly did it up righteous. Set a standard. In the 'western theatre' here I have always looked at the Mississippi River and thought we should arrive that way at some of the events along the River. The re-enacting community is going through the series of 150- anniversaries. Camping in costume with history as a theme. -Buck in the Dome
