This past weekend, Charlotte and I went to Camp Nelson with Steve and Linda Jarrell and the Skidmore family. Camp Nelson was a Federal quartermaster depot and recruit training center during the Civil War. There were several demonstrations during the day and it was interesting to learn about local activity during the Civil War. Camp Nelson was a key supply point for the Union's western campains and Sherman's match to the sea. Unfortunately, I ran out of battery almost as soon as we arrived.
