Gettysburg trip

[garyjd]

I just got back from a four day visit to Gettysburg. This has got to be one of the most inspiring places for a sculptor/painter. I always find something new when I go there. Follow the link to my blog for a few pictures from my trip.

Below is the "Slaughter Pen" which has undergone extensive tree removal.~Gary

Thanks Gary,
I had no idea of the Gettysburg place only from the Hollywood movies.
I'm glad you had the time to take the shot and put them here.

Marc, Actually some of the movies Gettysburg was actually shot on the field.

Roc, The number of tourists there was not too bad. We try to get there around the time of MFCA too. The drawback is that a lot of schools have their "class trips" scheduled and you have to deal with hundreds (or more) of annoying kids. I'd love to go for Rememberance day weekend in November.

Jason, I (we) did have a blast. Hopefully we'll be able to coordinate a visit next year.

Virgilius, Your welcome. Sorry, no bullets. Visitors are NOT supposed to remove artifacts from the park.~Gary
