It was a beautiful day at Fort Constitution. The fort is typically closed except for events like this one. It will be open again tomorrow 7/31 from 9:30-12:30 with cannon shootings at 10, 11, and 12. You can also take a tour of Portsmouth Harbor Lighthouse. A donation is appreciated and will help restore the fort.
