Battles, Mishaps, and Of Course Pics!

Today we went to Gettysburg.
Yes, Gettysburg the famous battle field.

It was very interesting (and really, really pretty!).  We learned alot, like where they fought each of the different battle's was actually very spread apart!  I'd have been exhausted just getting from place to place, forget about fighting!

So here are pics.


And here's a story from the day: we ate at the food thingy in the visitor's center next to the museum, and I got ketchup and mustard.........
Why, you ask, do you tell us these nutrition-filled facts.
Because they also had bbq sauce.........
Now you say, what does that have to anything.....
Because Jesus performed a modern day miracle he turned ketchup in to bbq!
So, naturally, I asked a worker about it.  It took two worker multiple trips in and out of the kitchen, occasionally they thought they fixed it, but EVENTUALLY they did make the ketchup be ketchup. Hooray!!!!!!!!!

Dyl is out :-)

And P.S. the answer to yesterday's quiz...#1!  That's right the woman who got harpooned after being mistaken for a whale was the true story!  For those of you who guessed #2, you're in good company - we thought so too.  I guess you just can't make this stuff up.

  1. Actually, I was thinking of #3 (could just picture the guy making desperate attempts to reach the boat (and don't all cruise ships look alike?)). I also couldn't picture anyone surviving a harpooning, so that first one just seemed too grisly... Oh well. Glad you enjoyed Gettysburg--I have pleasant memories of visits there and agree it's a beautiful spot!

  2. Well we didn't actually hear the whole story about the woman being harpooned. And it turns out that the woman wasn't hit by the harpoon. It JUST missed her and now she appears to be suing for the emotional trauma it caused!!!
