bobski

hey zipper.....you seem to be the one who can master this one.....anyone else?
i need to find the flag to the 120th N.Y..
reason? town records show that the 120th use to be bivuac'ed on my property in 1862-63. i still find inert cannon and mini balls in the garden. im honoring them by flying their flag on my porch once i find it. it s kind of funny being that im a yankee living in virginia, but residing on hallowed yankee ground! i feel good about it being my town surrendered to the yanks w/o a fight. am i brave to fly the flag? yep. am i scared? nope. would you?[:D]

If it was the 66th NY State Volunteers(Irish Brigade) you'd be finding lots of empty whiskey bottles on your property.
