Re: Its not Texas but its History

Thanks for posting the link to your photos. I would love to visit Gettysburg and Harpers Ferry, as well as many others. We have visited Vicksburg battle field a couple of times and still do not think we have read everything. The historic battlefields, and the cemetary full of crosses nearby, makes your mind try and understand the living h**l that must have been to be there at that time.

Re: Its not Texas but its History

It is an interesting park even if you have no interest in the civil war, this link Gettysburg National Military Park

shows a small fraction of the museum, which took us 2 hours to go through with reading (and I am no history buff)
, With Harpers Ferry, where you can cross the Potomic, Antietam and Fort McHenry all so close there a lot to see (and there's even more )nearby.
