I wanted to call a temporary cease fire to wish all of you a very Merry Christmas. It has been a joy getting to meet all of you on these threads to talk about the Civil War and the honorable men on both side, who did their duty as they saw it.

So from this Southern, I will meet you on my side of the Rappahannock. I have some nice tobacco. Hopefully, you will bring some of that fine northern coffee, for all we have to drink is a dried roots and sweet potato concoction.

Oh, and don't forget the cream!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Let us cross over the river, and rest under the shade of the trees.

Merry Christmas to you and yours as well carton253.

I’ve given your viewpoint quite a bit of thought since my last post on the subject of JEB and his efforts during the Gettysburg campaign.

I’ll save my comments on that topic for another day.
