The lone gunner rides his cannon towards the oncoming rebs. Actually one of the boys taking a rest after about half of a 4 mile hike at the Chancellorsville Battlefield, part of the Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park near Fredericksburg. We got there around 10:30 and after a quick tour of the visitors center we set off on a long hike that may have been near the max the boys can handle. We had a bunch of complaining near the end but all in all, they enjoyed it. It was nice to get a little civil war history in with the hike and we made sure to stop at all the markers and read what went on there.
When we got home the Easter Bunny dropped a bunch of eggs in the yard and the boys went at it. I have all the pictures up on flickr for those interested. http://www.flickr.com/photos/homerclees/sets/72157600057322784/ Enjoy.
