Patty we discovered the Civil War about the same time , I saw that sign on my first trip that said Pea Ridge, I turned in and was hooked. Took a class at the high school and set off again the next year to see as much as possible. Came home to a reeneactment in our local park on Labor Day. I walked up and there was a booth Civil War Round Table and Drum Barracks. I said to them I have been looking for you and didn't know you were here. I wrote a check that day to join the round table , I have only missed one meeting since then. That was three years ago. From there I join the book group at the Drum, then became a docent . I subscirbe to all the magazines, and now also am a Daughter of Union and Confederate vets. What a change in five years. I too marvel at the extent of the group. Now I look forward to the trivia here and this board. I feel like I have friends in all different places that enjoy learning about the War as much or more than I do. I would love to see Johan and Steve Cone reenact ,Visit Shiloh and Corinth with Cal Cav, Visit JDC at the fort where he is a docent now. Tour battle fields with you . etc etc. I know I have skipped some people Ole , Joanie Cleburne Fan, Fuller . All of you and more. You all add to my day when I read your posts . Sometimes we are silly sometimes very serious. I have learned so much from all of you. I am looking forward to many more post from all. Now about that trivia question yesterday. I was up all night looking for the answer That was a good one., nice thing is I am retired I can do that. Susan
