Civil War Days at Conner Prairie

Saturday was a beautiful day in Indiana, sunny and about 65 degrees, with a little wind now and then. It was a good day to visit the Conner Prairie Pioneer Museum and check out the annual Civil War Days event. My grandchildren, Shelbi and Jaxon McKinley, who are history buffs, had a great time taking in the battle, cheering on the White River baseball team to victory over the Indianapolis team in an 1860's style game, discussing politics with President Lincoln, visiting the vendors and the food court. The turkey legs, biscuits and root beer made for a refreshing lunch.
