Cannon fire could be heard at our house this afternoon! We made our way over to the park in time to catch much of the battle... and what a production it was. I had no idea so many people would be involved, or that the weapons would be SO loud. The first time we heard the cannons up close, Jinna cried.
Since we're studying American history this year in school, this was such a great opportunity to see some of what life was like for those soldiers. And even though we knew it wasn't real, it was sobering to see men yelling and strategizing for how to best kill others in the field.
