Well, the last big shooting event has come and gone. It was cold, hot, and fun. We got there on Friday morning to help our captain now out Lt. Col. Set up the streets for the tents. They had a display going on so they were shooting cannons and we could setup. After setting up and getting into character I went and looked for the flying turtle the local bar that follows the armies around. It was a cold night so I slept like crap. Woke up every couple of hours trying to get warm and what not. After a hard nights sleep, it was time to wake up.
Nick Steve, and I along with a few others went out for the morning skirmish. There were 7 of us going against just about the whole confederate army that showed up...70 rebs. We were outnumbered 10 to 1. We hid in the woods and let them come to us. They kept trying to flank us but we were spread out so they thought there were more of us. We managed to confuse them so bad we were able to get back to our camp. The actual battles weren't as fun but they did let me shoot a lot so I was happy.
