THis is actually a kind of bad picture... When I first got back into the hobby and was convinced to be a "mounted rifle." Proof that we can all improve.

Shane & Ami:

Thank you both for the great photos of your re-enacting events, and it's always nice to see a face behind our printed words. That beautiful child must be none other than your own daughter Shane and with a typical proud father looking on?

Ami, it's encouraging to see that women too participate and are included in your battery.

Dawna

Dawna, that's the Captain w/ my little one... thanks, I've never been mistaken for a minister before! I'm the Corporal holding up one side of the flag.

After Motor Mill we'll be able to post some pics of you.

Shane,
what a great idea, I was hoping we could start a link like this, here is the photo I use on my post, but I thought a bug picture would make it easy to see what i really look like. I'll dig up and post a few more.

Martin:

What a great photo for a 35th wedding anniversary - it's always nice to see a face behind the words on our computer screens. Great pic of James too...very "Man From Snowy River!"

I agree with Dawna, these are all great shots and it certainly brings us non-reenacters closer to you guys (and girls). Thanks for letting us share a little vicariously. I hope the rest of you out there will share your photos with us too!
