	Sandy Sandy Faust	This is amazing Skully!  I cannot say enough, how much I admire you and the other men who have taken on this project.  I'm looking forward to this blog being updated and more photos of the finished work!!! xox   Posted by Sandy on Sunday, July 18, 2010 - 12:55 PM [Reply to this]

	berry Andrea McEwan	Thank you so much for sharing this with us, Skully. I was looking through the photos on the "Abandoned Ireland" Site just yesterday, thinking how nice it would be to see at least some of Fort Camden restored. My imagination goes wild, and I try to picture in my mind what life on Fort Camden must have been like for Military personnel and their families. Not much is available on the Internet..... Skully, I have one question: Did the name Fort Meagher never catch on? I read about Thomas Francis Meagher (fascinating!) and found many websites mentioning that Fort Camden was renamed in 1938, to honor Meagher.   Posted by berry on Sunday, July 18, 2010 - 4:48 PM [Reply to this]

	Sandy Sandy Faust	I can't help imagining what the knife was carved for.  It's purpose; was it to make an escape....?  No one will ever know.  Too bad artifacts can't tell tales! Great find!! :-)   Posted by Sandy on Monday, July 26, 2010 - 6:36 PM [Reply to this]

	berry Andrea McEwan	I wonder how many more hidden "treasures" will be found....   Posted by berry on Monday, July 26, 2010 - 10:27 PM [Reply to this]

	Arykah	Skully I've admired your musical talents for some time now. I think it's so important to restore old timeless classics like this. I would hope to see Fort Camden someday. Thank you so much for helping to bring this beautiful area back to life. Arykah   Posted by Arykah on Saturday, July 31, 2010 - 4:45 PM [Reply to this]

	Skully	Today I was working alone beside the old ballroom (for task master Vince) I heard a knock on the door. So I walked around the corner to see, but there was no one. I returned to my work, again a gentle knocking. Again I went back to look, this time I really searched... no one. I returned to my work... Again knocking but this time I heard a door opening and then bang shut... I went around and stood inside to old ballroom, and waited. The wind came up, blew a piece of wood against the wall, this caused the knocking sound, then the wind blew stronger... the door opened, and then banged shut :-) Still no sign of the Camden Ghost! Skully.    Posted by Skully on Saturday, July 31, 2010 - 10:29 PM [Reply to this]

	Sandy Sandy Faust	LOL!!!  I love it!! Were you thinking about our conversation?? Hee-hee!!  Just don't go there after dark.........Bwahhahaha!!   Posted by Sandy on Sunday, August 01, 2010 - 2:15 PM [Reply to this]

	Buaton	There (are) many spirits at Camden. They are watching you all.   As you try to debunk it all...I just smile... LOL......when we first started corresponding, I ask you if you wanted to talk about ghost and spirits. You said, that you do not believe in stuff like that, but you love to read about it. Sooo, my friend, what I (did not) tell you, at the time is that...I, and many of my relatives, have seen and communicated with spirits, our whole life! It is a trait that I not only inherited, but also passed on to my sons, and my Grandson. When such as this is a part of your life, you do not know, how to not know it... 　 　 　   Posted by Buaton on Sunday, August 01, 2010 - 4:21 PM [Reply to this]

	"The Irish Imp"	All I can say is WOW!!! What a commendable project. Much respect to you Skully and the three gentlemen working with you!!!   Posted by "The Irish Imp" on Tuesday, August 03, 2010 - 5:39 AM [Reply to this]

	Candy	I have cleared homes and places for many and have been asked a number of times to help my fellow native americans to help them as well, it's a fact most places that have been quiet for many years will become active when construction begins on a place. I don't think the sounds will stop any time soon...it's not always the wind! The spirits of the past are watching... and they are pleased im sure!   Posted by Candy on Thursday, August 05, 2010 - 4:28 AM [Reply to this]

	berry Andrea McEwan	A great example of what can be done (and lots has been done in the short amount of time the project started) once a community pulls together. I am absolutely fascinated with the history of the Fort! Right now I am looking through old records from the time when Fort Camden was used as a Prison. Unfortunately I haven't  found much about the time the British occupied the Buildings, but I will keep searching.   Posted by berry on Thursday, August 05, 2010 - 4:31 AM [Reply to this]

	caskullyfan	Skully, I can't say enough about what a wonderful job Your Whole Team is doing to restore a Wonderful piece of Irish History. I had stumbled upon Fort Camden before you posted the rescue; I found it looking for pictures for one of my slideshows and found the fort on the other side called Fort Carlisle which took me to Ft. Camden. You all are doing a great job, please keep us posted.  hugs, darlene   Posted by caskullyfan on Sunday, August 08, 2010 - 7:07 PM [Reply to this]

	Lynda Cullen	This is great work. Delighted to see an old place being brought back to life :-)   Posted by Lynda Cullen on Friday, August 13, 2010 - 5:31 PM [Reply to this]

	Skully Fans of Massachusetts Pam Skully Fan	Skully, this is FANTASTIC & FASCINATING!  I am enthralled.  Thank you so much for sharing. I deeply regret not being here when Lord Mayor presented you the Gold Key to Fort Camden. There should have been a big party on your page; my Wonderfully Tall & Handsome, WISE & Kind Irish Gentleman Musician!  Yes, you have earned another adjective, WISE. I am so Proud of you I could just bust my buttons!  And I'm totally impressed by you and your comrades for embarking on this project. Tell me, Skully, what did you physically feel when you were by yourself in the ballroom and the knocks came? Next time, bring & play YOUR music and that spirit lady will surely dance with you.  Your music is THAT stimulating, Buddy!   Posted by Skully Fans of Massachusetts on Tuesday, August 17, 2010 - 12:05 AM [Reply to this]

	Gram Pam	Skully, this is such an honorable project; all of you hard-working volunteers are truly building a fine legacy for yourselves.  I stand in awe! The buildings that have collapsed...Skully. It is probably best.  You don't know what kind of negative or sad energy may have been in those rooms. Surely all that everyone is doing to restore this beautiful and historic Fort Camden will also be a financially smart investment for the whole community.  I pray that it will always be run by wise and honorable men such as youself and your comrades. Warm & fuzzy [SO PROUD OF YOU] hugs, Pam   Posted by Gram Pam on Tuesday, August 17, 2010 - 12:21 AM [Reply to this]
