Wow, 150 years.

I've gained a lot of respect for the Civil War as of lately, I recently found a small battlefield not a 10 minute drive from my house that I have driven past almost every day and didn't even know it.

Since I'm close to Independence (where Louis and Clark took off from) I figured the large marble plaques were to commemorate their adventure. So one nice sunny day I was driving home from a dentist's appointment, I decided that after 22 years, I wanted to read these plaques and stop my curiosity.

Imagine my surprise when I found at that the two plaques were giving a history and battle map of the area! I'd like to walk through the field and just see what it was like on the field.
