Step back in time and visit Calico during the Civil War Re-Enactment Feb 14-16. Last year, we had an "organized" field and 20 or so LPA members went and got some great shots. There are on-going activities throughout the day, including a battle, with canons and lots of smoke. Many participants, all dressed up in period type costumes, LOVE to pose and have their photo taken.
I'm planning to go on Saturday if the current weather forecast holds out. Needs to be mostly cloudy. A few showers will be OK. This will be a great opportunity for portraits of the participants.
Here's the schedule...
