Wendy and I enjoyed Gettysburg and have been thinking about touring historical sights in VA.I like the loom pic. Interesting story about Gettysburg. 2 things left off the tour are the cannon that fired the first shot (and you drive right by it) and on the back side of one monument is a statue of a dog.There is no inscription but if you ask a ranger they will tell you about it. Her name was Sally she followed her master through battles and got seperated from him at Gettysburg and stayed with the wounded troops nursing thier wounds. She was later reunited with her master. But unfortunately was killed in a later battle. Most never know her story. Took us a week to tour Gettysburg because we didn't do the drive by and glad we didn't we did by the longest CD supposed to be a 6 hr tour but thats only if you don't stop and look and read. If all you are going to do is drive by why bother? You miss most of it. On a side note my mom used to teach at Moravian Academy and the last of the Mohiccans is buried in that cemetary there.


I learned all I need to know about life by killing smart people and eating their brains.
