Morning Glory Folks~

Wonderful read about one of the greatest battles in American history. Next to Hancock, Chamberlain is one of the few Union officers that captured my interest. A regular guy and a quick learner; it was his undaunted courage that earmarked him.

Many of you have vowed to visit Gettysburg someday, I cannot emphasize enough the impact it will have on you.

Breastworks of the 44th New York Infantry then . . .

. . . and today.

Thanks sweets!

Ever read about the friendship between Hancock & Armistead?
Even after all these years I still get a lump in my throat.

Morning all.

Won something at the Special Chamber Meeting this morning that I can't use.
Look for a small package in a few days, w_over_w.
I figure you can use them. :-)
