Fort George is located near Niagara on the Lake, Ontario, Canada. It is across the Niagara River from Fort Niagara in New York. During the War of 1812 Americans captured Fort George from the British in May, 1813. The British recaptured the fort in December, 1813.

I like rainfield61's comment..
Nice photo of the fort, George. It's hard for me to realize that two hundred years ago we would have been on opposite sides. I'm glad we live now. ;-)
Interesting history. Amazing that it was captured and recaptured, all in one year.
Beautiful view. Looking at something different here for the first time apart from the nature.
George, I hope that I also should have a fort with my name. You are lucky one.
