No...my family wants to go on the cheap. Best Western for us! LOL

We stayed at the Holiday Inn, which was nice. We could walk to all the touristy stuff we wanted to visit. The hobbit lass didn't like it because it wasn't haunted. She wanted to stay at the haunted Farnsworth House. We did eat there, but no ghosts. At least visit it. We bought one of the audio tapes and used it to tour the battlefield. It was pretty cool. We could rewind the narration and repeat stuff if we wanted. We could time our tour ourself and didn't have to crane our necks to see out a bus. Some friends told us about it. It was cheaper than taking a whole family on a bus tour, plus we still have the tape.

My father has been numerous times and considers himself a Gettysburg expert. He wants to lead the tour... so, I'll let him (got to humor the old man)...

I'll check out the House.

Just got some news that may be putting the whole trip in limbo...
