This is me dressed as aUnion soldier giving an interpretive program at the Old Fort in downtown Fort Smith. Although the crowd wasn't too large the ones who were there were really enthusiastic singers as well as spoon and washboard players. . We sang both Northern and Southern songs of course and just had a wonderful time. This program was indoors, in one of the old jail cells in the basement actually. It was miserably hot outside and I assure you the wool coat wasn't exactly the latest in hi-tech breathable clothing. They have graciously invited me back and we might just do it again in September!!!! FUN!!!
