July 23-24 2011, we made the trip up to Ogdensburg again. This year is different. Usually the 27th Inniskilling goes as land troops, but this year they were supporting Springfield, VT's celebration. So the Dark and Stormy crew brought the boat instead and we had a blast. We also spent a fair bit of time trekking from the Navy camp on one side of the site to the British camp and the Sutlers. We did make our usual trip to the Freight house next door for dinner. These folks have good food and are very welcoming to the reenactors. A few things were different - we didn't get lost downtown this year. We knew ahead of time of the doughnouts and breakfast goodies the community donates, so morning coffee was not a struggle. The weekend went smoothly and we're looking forward to bring the boat back next year.
