Photos from the

Road To Richmond Tour - 2002

(or, what I did on my summer vacation)

First two are a couple from a flag return ceremony in Syracuse NY in June:

The Erie Canal Museum in downtown Syracuse was a very nice venue. This is a nice shot of my Wunder Banjo, and my new civilian sack coat (Blockade Runner, Bell Buckle Tenn.

The next big stop was Windham NY for the Heritage Civil War Music Gathering, Aug 2, 3, &4

The location, The Centre Church in Windham NY, built in 1832, and home of the Windham String Quartette.

Inside view; the place was packed solid for the big Saturday night show.

The house band, the 77th NY Regimental Balladeers, preparing for the big show.

On the other side of the room, the Peanut Gallery during one of the all-play songs.

Doing a solo bit. I have gut strings. My suit has hand sewn button holes. And I forgot to take my glasses off before going on. This is why I don't preach!

Hamming it up for the TV cameras during De Boatmen's Dance. Nice suit!

The Sons (and Daughters) of the Gallant 28th (Mass.)

That's all for now. Special thanks to John Quinn, who was responsible for my presence at both these events.
