We are going to see Uncle Mark tomorrow,..
He works at Ford Rodd Hill, a National Historic Park.
I haven't been there yet, but from what everyone tells me, it's fun. There's a big lighthouse!
Uncle Mark has a load of firewood for us, and we are taking Grampa's truck to get it.

I Love Uncle Mark,..

He feeds me things when no one is looking.

Here are some intersting facts about Fort Rodd Hill,

Fort Rodd Hill - a National Historic Site - is a coast artillery fort built in the late 1890s to defend Victoria and the Esquimalt Naval Base. The Fort includes three gun batteries, underground magazines, command posts, guardhouses, barracks and searchlight emplacements. There are numerous interpretive signs and audio-visual stations, as well as period furnished rooms and friendly, knowledgeable staff. (UNCLE MARK) Visitors can explore gun batteries and underground magazines built a century ago, as well as searchlight emplacements, command posts...and much more.
