This is at the corner of Bethel and Merchant. Do you know what it is? Okay, not Erick and Tish shooting. The other thing.

I was just looking at the same book at the collector show. It's amazing how some buildings are still around and in good shape too. Cool you spotted the cannon while out on your shoot.

Shun-Wah, it was kinda funny 'cause I didn't spot it until I was right next to it. It surprised me.
I think the one roaming free with the green hat is the horse. The one in purple must be the rider.
