Yesterday, we took a field trip to Fort Clinch, a Civil War era fort neat Fernandina, Florida.
Blaze had been playing with this head-lamp flashlight in DH's room at the plantation before we left in the morning, and insisted he needed to take it with us. I thought it was silly to wear it during a bright, sunny day, but it turned out that there were plenty of dark passageways at the fort, where he could play with the light.

A costumed interpreter explained about fort life and then wrote Blaze a pass so he could leave.
Very nice! The bunks are so tiny...and I love they had a checkerboard there, too.
ReplyDeleteThe movie at the museum there, explained that each man received fresh straw for his mattress once a month. I still don't think they'd be very comfortable, though.
