The next day, we went to Fort Ligonier where we were greeted with this howitzer
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250073
and the field piece
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250074
that Benjamin showed us.
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250075
We saw the new buildings -- the smoke house
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250076
hospital
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250077
and silversmith shop
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250078
that are not yet open for visiting. Then we admired the fort
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250079
and its protecting cannons
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250080
and noticed that Suzanne was color coordinated
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250081
thanks to the bad presentation of color by the camera. The big cannon
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250082
impressed us all
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250083
as we made our way to the mess hall
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250084
where some of the food
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250085
looked less appetizing than these
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250086
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250087
conglomerations. The butler
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250088
did well at maintaining the quarters
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250089
making Suzanne
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250090
happy as we made our way past the powder
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250091
to the armory
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250092
where the smith
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250093
was hard at work. Next we went to the Forbes hut
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250094
where the poor general
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250095
had written his last will
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250096
and would never enjoy his dinner.
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250097
At the hospital
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250098
we watched them tend to this man
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250099
and try to repair this person's
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250100
missing limb. All this excitement made Suzanne hungry
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250101
so we headed past the food
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250102
to the commissary
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250103
where she felt better.
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250104
Next we went to the officer's quarters
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250105
where George Washington
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250106
was greeted by Montgomery and Bouquet
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250107
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250108
in an image more real than this picture
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250109
but perhaps not as real as this picture
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250110
of General Wolfe's last stand.
../../../Sabbat/08.24-26.01Ligonier//P8250111
