~UPDATE~

We had a fine group of us show for the Family fun day. The new location definitely was bigger and so was the crowd. Many folks took an interest in the HMS Dark & Stormy. Johanna often had a crowd around her as she spun. Eddie was our sole 27th soldier, he was showing folks the types of things a soldier might have had with him on the campaign. Folks seemed to enjoy talking with all of us, and we had fun getting out and chatting with folks.
