He's in Pennsylvania for two weeks.
Today I had the rental car and I played tourist.
I started at Antietam.
Bloodiest one day battle of the Civil War.
The countryside is lush and beautiful.
What a blast.
I saw an Amish girl with flip flops.
They were bejewled.
Sorta edgy isn't it?
Then I went on to Gettysburg.
Wow.

Hi sounds like a great trip. We went to Gettysburg and Antietam when our kids were little - important places - sacred ground because so many died there. I was in Pennsylvania too this summer - spent the summer in Philadelphia. Lots of history there too. I finally got to see Valley Forge, although our visit was too quick. Hope all is going well. Have a great week!
Looks like you had a very nice time. Glad you took the time to do that!
Beauitful photos!! I wish I could have jumped into your suitcase, I've always wanted to go there....ahhh, one day!!
Love the photo's! My sister and I went to Gettysburg once and boy, oh boy can you feel the spirit of the soldiers there. It is very humbling and spiritual! Quite the amazing place. Glad you were able to catch up with your hubby I'm sure he appreciated you being there. That lil Amish girl probably hid her sandals and slipped them on when no one was looking.
Oh my bucket list just got bigger!
Thanks for sharing, Tauna!
You're having so much fun! Seeing all the things that one day, we'd like to see.
I can just imagine the solemn feeling at Gettysburg, perhaps it's similar to the feeling of solemnity and reverence that we felt at the Pearl Harbor memorial.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
It was brrrr.. cold here this morning. Just 36. Convinced the hubby to light the fire and he threw in a cup of hot chocolate for good measure **smile**.
