Civil War at the Fraizer History Museum

We went to Louisville today to visit the Civil War exhibit. We was some wonderful historical folk including a Knight, a Civil War drummer boy and Clara Barton. That is my favorite thing at the Fraizer, watching the performers. We got there early and got to talk a long time to a man about Native American tools and weapons. We got to see the Chrismas trees from other countries and I got to see a wonder photography exhibit. The pictures were taken in rural Kentucky during the 70's. A few were taken near where I grew up. I was so engrossed in the pictures the boys walked away from me and someone from the museum staff brought them back :(

This picture belonged to a soldier at Gettysburg. He pulled it out to look at as he laying dying on the battlefield.
