Gettysburg

A great President and a great dog sit and have a chat about Gettysburg.  Eva is ready to enter the 2016 race for President following her talk with Abe.  We hope her heritage will not be questioned during the campaign.

Today we did a driving tour of the Gettysburg Battlefield.  My son Matt is more of a history buff than I am and he had an audio CD that lead us through the battlefield.  When ever I didn't understand what was happening he could explain what transpired during those few days in the first week of July.


We walked out onto the top of Round Top which may be the site of the battle that determined the Unions victory at Gettysburg.

Our lives are good because soldiers sacrificed for us.
