Monocacy cannons

I've got to make a study of this.

Seems to me that Monocacy had just one real cannon when I visited there as a kid.  Now I could certainly be wrong, but I know that I only saw one.  






The tube on this gun outside the visitor center is from the war, and I imagine that tis is the same gun that I remember as a kid.  But these days Monocacy has more cannons than it used to, and some of them are fabulous reproductions that seem to be made of some sort of resin.  I got a close look at a couple of them and they are very convincing. 

When I get to the park, I'll investigate further and post pictures.


I know, the suspense is killing you.


Now get back to wrapping those presents!
