Banking on the Apalachicola

One of the reasons I've been so lax in regular updating has been the work that I've been doing on the British Fort at Promontory Bluff on the banks of the Apalachicola River in 1816. The nickname for the place was "the Negro Fort". It was destroyed by an elite squad of US Army officesores sent south from Georgia to officially protect supply ships but secretly designed to obliterate the facility. Almost done.
