Movin' On

It's been so hard for me to sit down and blog. I've been having problems trying to wrap my mind around the fact my son is moving to Oklahoma. I only pray that this is part of God's plan for him. I have been keeping busy trying to keep from thinking about the move.

Yesterday a friend and I went to the American Civil War reenactment that is held at this time each year. Putnam County West Virginia was involved in two combats during to the Civil War. One was the Battle of Scary Creek on July 17, 1861 and the other was the Blue and Grey Skirmish at Hurricane Bridge on March 28, 1863.

All the costumes were authentic of clothes worn during this time period.

Even the children participated in this event.

rThis guy was more than willing to pose for the camera.

He and a friend even put on a little show for the camera.

Don't you think this is a very good likeness of Abe and Mary.
Mary is a cousin of my friend who went to the reenactment with me.

Here the men are getting ready for battle.

These beautiful horses provided a tour of the grounds for the public.

I'll try to post more pictures tomorrow. After spending a couple hours looking around we decided to go see the movie Duplicity. I love Julia Roberts and have been looking forward to seeing this movie on the big screen. I was really disappointed. If you have seen this movie, what is your opinion.
