Eleanor Rose has successfully crossed back over the Mason-Dixon Line! I received a warm welcome from my neighbors to the North and made sure to extend them an invitation to visit the South. Food was indeed plentiful, wine flowed freely and the photo opportunities were almost more than @Southern Unionist could handle. Of course, he did manage to take plenty so here we go CWT friends.............
Our first stop was Harrisburg, PA. We stayed in the heart of downtown and enjoyed visiting the Capitol, the riverfront and the National Civil War Museum.
The current Capitol is built on the site of the original. It is magnificent! I have visited many state capitol buildings over the years and this has to be the most impressive one I have ever seen.
Of course, I found the Capitol's rose garden!
This historical marker, memorializing the Grand Review Of Civil War Colored Troops, is located directly behind the Capitol.
We dined in a 1913 riverfront mansion, along the Susquehanna River. The city's riverboat can be seen passing by.
Harrisburg has a very pedestrian friendly downtown. This pedestrian bridge goes to the city park.
This was sculpted from a single tree trunk near the pedestrian bridge. I loved it!
We'll head to the National Civil War Museum tomorrow. It was awesome!!
