My father and I
went out to the old french fortress of louisburg
over the weekend

and of course
I snapped some shots



now technically, this is the new old fort
because it has been reconstructed
[mostly using original materials]

and they have a crew of folks
dressed in period costumes
who will tell you about their lives
which is interesting
especially since they are studiously coached
to be ignorant of any technology invented
since their period
so its kinda like a timewarp but, umm, not

but definitely worth a visit
and a good time


Fishing Sloop and White Flag
[is there nothing more appropriate to the period]
[and/or history in than a french fort flying a white flag?]
[I think not]


Outside corner over looking the moat


Fortifications


Passage


Flintlock firing


Ignition


Fire


The Lighthouse at Louisburg, built if my recollection is correct in 1923


End of the Day
