Speaking of Generals, I just realized that General Grant was born on this date in 1822. Happy Birthday Mr. President.

I live in Georgetown Ohio. "Grant Days" beings on Saturday, with re enactors invading Georgetown, just as Magruders raiders did. We have a Grant impersonator (City Business Manager - he's dead on Grant circa 1865).
If anyone here at FR is within driving distance of Georgetown Ohio, and has a serious CW bug like me, I strongly encourage you to make the trip this weekend.
My property has one of the "wagon roads" that had to have been used as the CSA troops came from the northern areas of Cincinnati east in an attempt to join Lee in Pennsylvania in June and July of 1863. One of the reasons we purchased it.
