Today, my husband and I went to a nearby town–Centralia, Missouri–to attend their ‘Re-enactment to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Centralia along with the Mount Zion Battle’. The event took place of the historic battlefield southeast of Centralia.
I took lots of photos and wanted to share them. The ‘Friends of Centralia Battlefield’ did a wonderful job of creating a replica of camps from that time period. The Civil War Re-enactors did a great job, too.
Next weekend, the Boone County Historical Society will hold their 37th Annual Heritage Festival. I’m looking forward to that, as well.

Thanks, Sheila! The reenactment was great. I posted a picture of the tent with the bed because it looked wonderful–so cozy.
