Somewhat of a history buff, eh? I like the sepia tones.
Thanks for the historical reference and the excellent photo!
Beautiful shot. Never heard of this fort before.
You have your journey at Fort Niagara today.
Happy journeying.
Sepia is perfect for this picture. I enjoy your mini history lessons.

I need to brush up on my history! Interesting to learn about this fort and the photo looks nice in sepia.
I just watched a Bridge Too Far
I really think there are no winners in war.
people just never learn.
If leaders want wars they should take part in them themselves.
Like Bin Laden. He should be right there leading and dying with the rest of them.
Interesting how the times have changed. The forts are history, and for a while it was fairly easy to cross back and forth over the border...but it seems to be becoming more and more complicated.
Thanks for the historical reference and the excellent photo!
