On Labor Day this year we took our kids to Wilson's Creek National Battlefield. We weren't sure what to expect, but were pleasantly surprised to find out that they would be firing off a Civil War artillery piece. Only half a load was used for the demo. I think we liked it a lot more than the kids. All in all, Wilson's Creek just isn't much to look at, but the canon was cool. And the kids got their National Parks Passports stamped again, which was fun for them. They love that program.
