Thanks to PopPop for rescuing the fire from the pernicious Saturday winds. Thanks also to Kim Izor and Mary Izor for all of their generous support and providing Sunday's ice cream. Thanks to Chad Warrell for dropping by to play us some great Civil War fiddle tunes. Thanks to Debby Eagle Gillaugh for taking pictures and chatting about genealogy. Thanks to Laurel Benner for making the yard more beautiful and historically accurate. Thanks to Jay Robinson for recording videos and sharing them on social media ( check out his YouTube channel ).
