RE: #monochromemonday: Civil War Reenactment
Wonderful photos and perfect in black and white. I love reenactments. Often the ones around here are the black powder Mountain Man/ Fur Trader sort of gatherings along the Mississippi River, but I have been to several Civil War re enactments, too. Nearby Galena IL was the hometown of Ulysses S Grant. They are quite fascinating to attend and you really do feel like you've stepped back in time.
We have a thing near the town where I live called River of Time that sounds a lot like what you folks have over there. It would be interesting to go to one of the larger reenactments sometime.
Prairie Villa rendezvous has been going on since 1976. It's a big deal event but I haven't been to it in years. It would be fun to go again to take pictures!
