Find and identify the hidden cannons, a new game
« on: December 06, 2007, 09:05:12 AM »
Well, the roads aren't too great today and the truck won't start, seems there's a pinhole fuel/air leak somewhere, which is big trouble with diesels.  Am sitting here waiting for batteries to charge enough to try and crank it over some more.  NO fun, got a lot of places I have to go today and this weekend!

Meanwhile, here's a game you can play.  There are links to images of two old postcards of the old Augusta Arsenal (1816-1955.)  The website has good zoom and steering controls.  Use them and see how many different models of artillery pieces you can find inside the gates.  I found three different models among the many pieces to be found inside the gates, pretty quick, but there may be more, see what you can find.

I've never seen so many mounted Coehorns in one place.  If you didn't find them, keep lookin'!
