Gettysburg is windy



 

Second day in Gettysburg. The Jennie Wade House should be called the Georgia Wade House. Or perhaps the Jennie Wade Death House. Or, really, the Ginnie Wade Death House. I guess that's a little dark. Ah well. Speaking of dark, visited the cemetery. So many "unknown" graves. Quite sad. Visited another wax museum. Also quite sad. Then bailed on Gettysburg for the pool in Chambersburg. It's what Jeb Stuart would have wanted.

To Gettysburg!

 
 
Made it to Chambersburg, checked in, and found out the pool was CLOSED. WTF, Four Points?! So, then, we went to Gettysburg. Went walk about. Went to a wax museum dedicated to the Presidents of the United States. Abraham Lincoln and Eisenhower are major favorites of Gettysburg. Major favoritism. Dinner at Dobbin House. George Washington put his seal of approval on the ice cream and sorbet. Didn't have any. Might have if Lincoln or Eisenhower had loved it. Went on the Farnsworth House Candlelight Ghost Tour. Ghosts were EVERYWHERE. They even followed us home. Hitch hiking ghosts are no joke.
