- About Me:

It would be one of the most remarkable moments I have experienced in reenacting, and don’t know if anything like it can be recreated anytime soon.

Brandon Booth said… - Hey Dave,
Thanks so much for your concern and for the encouraging remarks at Fishers Hill. The surgery went well but I have still not gotten back the results so I'm still waiting. No news is good news in this situation so I am hoping for the best. Meanwhile my voice has improved considerably so I should be able to talk and enteract this weekend at Gettysburg which I am very much looking forward to. Thanks again Dave, you're a good buddy and I appreciate your friendship very much. See ya at Gettyysburg,
Brandon

- Dave you can create albums and arrange photos within them to whatever order you like. I created one for 1980s re-enactments as an example.
