With this year's events set to commence this weekend, I reckon it's about time I shared some photos from last year.

I like the pictures.I do have some questions ,Did Lee bring with him any staff members when he meet Grant?Who is the gentlemen in the chair ? He seems to be out of place,as does all those Confederate soldiers on the pouch[SIXTH PICTURE DOWN} The pictures of Lee on his sorrel are very good , just as in the pictures of the real RE Lee,.

Colonel Charles Marshall was the only staff officer who accompanied General Lee. Only the 5th photo is from the actual reenactment of the surrender.
 
Looks like a GREAT event and it appears that a good time was had by all. Hope y'all another great event this year. Please don't wait a whole year to post the photos.
