Last weekend we went to the Chalmette Battlefield to see a reenactment of the 1814 Battle of New Orleans. This was the 199th anniversary of the battle.
First we listened to the Marine Corps band play and then the reenactment began. It wasn't a very large production but still it was fun and informative.
We all agreed that after seeing this we all want to see a larger more organized reenactment in the future. As a matter-of-fact they are planning a much bigger reenactment next year for the 200th anniversary.
Chance drew this after we came home. This is his interpretation of the battle.
