American Adventure One

After a wet start in Manchester, a long flight, two hours security checks and getting lost driving out of the airport my American Civil War Adventure has begun. As my first battlefield I made it to Harper's Ferry on the Potomac.

 
This shot was just one of the many info boards which adorn the battle field.
These, my first cannons of the trip mark the Union artillery line on Bolivar Ridge.
Plenty of display boards and I like these which give the view of the battle 
From th confederate lines looking back at Bolivar Ridge
COnfederate line at Murphys farm. An excellent start to the trip.....
