The popular Civil War Days in Duncan Mills, California has been cancelled. It was called off last year due to Covid. This year road construction on a key access road to the property is the issue. Organizers hope to restart the event, in West Sonoma County north of San Francisco, next year. It always gets hundreds, sometimes thousands of people watching the battles, visiting the camps and enjoying the period music that becomes the soundtrack for a live history lesson. It’s located on private land in the redwoods. No fences, no power lines — the land pretty much untouched in over a century makes for the perfect backdrop.
