1-30-11, Day 147

To Landlocked:

With the help of Google,  I found out that these caps are called "Forage Caps."  During the Civil War soldiers carried the food they foraged in the forest in them.  These photos were taken at a military reinactment at Ft. Point at the base of the Golden Gate Bridge, stumbled upon while walking at Crissy Field yesterday.  The attraction escapes me but these people were very excited about keeping history alive in this way.  We had an amazing conversation with a more mature participant about gun control. 


From Landlocked:

The boy solved this himself.
