I would like to visit both Gettysburg and Antietam battlefields in the same trip, possibly next summer.

Morning rdl6989.

I would like to visit both Gettysburg and Antietam battlefields in the same trip

That's what we have planned, we're hoping we can get them both in but we may not be able to pull it off this trip.

Sam and I went to Antietam (Sharpsburg) today. We were originally going to try to make it to Gettysburg on the same day but we would have had to shorten the visit to Sharpsburg so we just spent the day there and will have to skip Gettysburg. Of course we had the rain to deal with but even then I don't think you could do the tour justice by trying to get both in, in one day. The only way I see that is if it was earlier in the summer and you had more daylight hours.

Ooops. You said same trip. I read same day. Same trip is a good idea, but we only have three days for sightseeing and need to cram a lot in!
