Taking Gettysburg in Three Days - Day One

     Mike loves history, so we decided to go to Gettysburg.  This year is the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, so the town has big plans for July 1st through 3rd.  We were happy to go early and avoid the July crowds.  We walked around town and checked out some shops and a museum on the first day of our three day get-away.

This was the view from our room in the Gettysburg Hotel.  http://www.historichotels.org/hotels-resorts/the-gettysburg-hotel-est1797
  

Gourds, gourds, and more gourds.  This store sold bird house gourds, butterfly house gourds, and gourds that didn't do anything except sit around.


Good to know.

     We got the lay of the land, and we scheduled our adventure for Day #2 - touring the battlefield by segway.
