Going to Gettysburg tomorrow

[pamc153PA]

I'm thinking about going out to Gettysburg tomorrow. Anyone going to be out there? Is there anything anyone wants me to check out, take a picture of, or look into while I'm there?

Cash, anything interesting going on out there tomorrow?

Have fun. High of 25. Almost t shirt weather compared to what we have had recently.

Any of these interest you. Not civil war related but two of the four events have wine

I've been to Hauser winery, the one out in Biglerville. I do like their wine, though I'm not a real cider person. This would certainly keep me warm . . . And then it doesn't matter whether it has to do with the Civil War or not.

I know. I have my hand and foot warmers all ready!

Hey I like your avatar photo. Is that you and . . . was it Frosty? What was that horse's name again?

Nothing that I know of. Troy Harman is giving a winter lecture on Saturday.

Bummer. This would be a good time for indoor stuff. Maybe I'll go to the Cyclorama--I haven't been for a long while, and it should be empty. Maybe they won't rush me out so fast.

Funny you asked that, Ken. I thought of that, too!

Thanks , yup that's me. Giving him a trim. That was Frosty. I did have another one that was his twin his name was Trenton.

Hey Ken,
Hope your doing well. Thanks for asking about the project. We are at a stand still due to the cold. Body work is done and its ready to be sprayed. I am going to be doing the painting myself now (not my first rodeo). The final decision is British Racing Green, which very close to the Oliver tractor green she wanted. Have to move the truck from the wife's outbuilding to my shop and mine is not heated. So pray from temps in the 50s.
Here is the color

Pam,
Did you have fun today? Pics? It was cold but the sun felt good.

Pam,

I had a great time! It was cold, but sunny, and not very windy, so if you could find a spot to sit, it was nice and warm. And guess who I saw as I was walking up to DD? Judi and Veryl! They drove by and stopped to talk until another car came along. I told them that if I could have expected to see anyone there on a cold February day, it would be them! They were out taking snow pictures.

I'll post pics when I get them downloaded.

Yes Pam it was good to see you today. It was cold but not as extreme as lately. Had to get out of the house today so when we left we were not planning on going to Gettysburg but as we usually wind up there when we don't have another destination in mind not surprising.

Here are a few pics from today.

A few more.

Sach's Bridge, Rock Creek is totally frozen! I wasn't brave enough to walk out on it, though--too bad, it would've been a neat perspective of the bridge.

Monument to Rush's Lancers, out on Emmitsburg Road past the far end of the park. They were part of Merritt's cavalry brigade. This often gets overlooked because it's off the beaten path, but it's one of my favorite monuments.

Very nice pictures, Pam. my first thought was, "good thing Lee didn't decide to go to Pennsylvania in the Winter, and then I thought about that and reminded myself why he went to Pennsylvania, and kicked myself. Hard!!!!

That's great. Yeah only the die hards are out in February. I love the pictures. The bridge looks awesome in winter.
