The canon blast!


We just happened to be there when they were giving a demonstration. It was pretty cool actually to watch. The actors did everything as if they were really back in the 1800's. They lit the canon by sunlight. Each person had a specific job to do. They taught us a bit about history while we were waiting for the canon to be loaded and ready to go. They actually just shot a styrophome ball but it still had a big blast. It scared Jaxen a bit but Kaeryn and Tristan thought it was pretty cool. Ron and I love history and we love to share it with our family. Now Kaeryn loves to learn about history and hopefully Tristan and Jaxen will enjoy it also.
