The British are Coming !


It's Fort Ligonier Days here in my small town. Fort Ligonier was built by the British in 1758 (250 years ago) and there was a small battle which took place there one October day. In fact the French and Indian War started not far from here in Jumonville. The Borough of Ligonier has a population of 2000 and over this weekend 100,000 people will come through. Food, music, activities at the fort and one of the best parades in the country (over two hours long).
