Gettysburg

Because we sat around for a lot of our vacation back east, when the whole Berrett family was available Thursday we decided we should drive a couple hours to see one of the cool places close by. We decided on Gettysburg, which I hadn't been to in at least 12 years and it had been a while for most the family too.

I think if I lived on the east coast I would be a lot more familiar with civil war history and all the different battles. Unfortunately though I have never, and I'm no history buff, so my knowledge of the subject is minimal. But, I still enjoyed seeing the monuments and memorials for all those who lost their lives or were wounded.

Here are a few pictures from the outing:

Although it was cold, it was a pretty day.








The whole gang (L to R): Sandi, Matt, Me, Nate, Dain, Ethan and Taylor






I couldn't believe how many unknown bodies were there. This was just one set.
