Emotional experience at Gettysburg

[infomanpa]

I have experienced an amazing emotional high that I experienced while crossing from Seminary Ridge to Cemetery Ridge. This was unlike any other Pickett's Charge walk.

Previously, I had captured and created audio files from the Pickett's Charge scene from the movie Gettysburg and transferred these files to my phone. As I walked the footsteps of Confederate soldiers on that fateful day, I played the movie audio from my phone. Awesome! As I stepped, the artillery roared in my ears as the music swelled. The sound of gunfire and men yelling filled my head. I swear, at times I felt like dropping to the ground to take cover. I could almost see the men around me moving toward the Angle. It was so surreal and breath-taking.

If you have the technical expertise to accomplish this, I highly recommend it!

Nice touch. I listened to the Gettysburg soundtrack while walking in Reynolds Woods once. "Visiting the boys" I called it. Made me cry.
