The Gettysburg trip is really worth it. I'll second that.
We took a family vacation to D.C. and Gettysburg the week before 9/11. If you ever get the chance, go. Buy one of the audio tapes for your car. Even Samwise Jr. was intrigued--although she was disappointed not to see a ghost. ;^)
I can understand why all the ghost stories abound. I don't believe in that stuff and consider myself pretty rational, but even I was "creeped" a little bit at times. I can't explain the feeling, but something just knaws at you from the battlefields.

I guess you'd get the same feeleing as when I got touring ome of the Battlefields in Belgium, I visitied some of the sites where the Battle of the Bulge took place, it's like the spirit of the events that took place there never leave.
