Gettysburg FANatic!!!!

My dad is a huge civil war buff....

he watched documentaries, he reads

books, he searches online. And no matter

how much it pains me to say this....he was

probably more excited to see Gettysburg

than me when he came to visit. ;)

Just kidding, but not about him being

way way way excited to see Gettysburg.

My poor Dad had an 18 hour trip to get to MD....

he left work at about 2 p.m. and went straight

to the airport, only to find out he was possibly not

going to make it out that night. But, luckily

a flight opened up and he made it to

Atlanta, Ga. He figured he could

catch a few winks at the airport, he had

a big day the next day.....Gettysburg!!!

Well, between the floor buffers and vacuums

my poor dad did not get very much sleep.

He made it out on the very first flight and

got to Baltimore at about 8 a.m. We thought

maybe he would want to nap a bit, take it easy

and we would hit Gettysburg the next day.

Boy, were we wrong....he wanted to go to Gettysburg.

So we packed a lunch that we could eat

when we got there and headed out.

We arrived and decided to eat first then drive

the tour. Here we are making our deliscious lunch.

mmmmm....hoagies

Daniel, after lunch....Savanah 8 1/2 months prego

Here is Dad to excited to wait....

so during lunch he told us the story

of "The battle of Gettysburg"

He was a fountain of knowledge....

it was awesome to share this experience

with my Dad!!! We had our own

personal tour guide!!

Just a cool statue we wanted a picture by!!
Another cool monument

This is my cannon....no big deal
