Lincoln Honest Abe

[JD Mayo]

When Honest Abe met Honest JD this was in 2018 at the new Gettysburg Visitor Museum. Which I highly recommend it. I was being silly for the photo lol.

I know there are more members who have a photo of themselves sitting in that exact same spot. Let's see em! So far @JD Mayo 's is the best in my book because he and Abe are striking the same pose!

Ryan, this was the day you were so kind to take my wife and I on a tour of Day 1!

I still can't tell you how nice it was to meet you and how appreciative we both were for your time and knowledge.

I second the opinion that the new Gettysburg museum is great. Personally, I'd rather see the fellas than the (admittedly pretty) wife.

I did say "better half"

How old is this statue? Like to know more about it. When we were at Gettysburg years ago no new museum and no statue that I can recall.

Thanks for posting pictures.

IIRC, the new visitor center opened in 2008 and, again IIRC, the Lincoln statue was there when it opened or shortly thereafter.

And she participated in our 2+ hour tour. Better half indeed.

What a keeper!!!! My wife lasts about 10 minutes as she comments "seen one and they all look alike!" Seems fair as that is how I feel about shopping and ALL the different stores!
