River Raisin Battle Field

Stop one on vacation was a battle field from the war of 1812.  I thought the kids would enjoy stopping there since it was ammunitions day and they were shooting off a cannon and some muskets.  However all the kids bolted when it was shooting time, so Mandy and I got to see (and feel) them fire off the period Howitzer.  The concussion was impressive!  Found a cool railroad bridge nearby for a couple photos, too.
