Jared and I decided to be crazy and go away for the weekend, I wouldn't call it totally crazy since it was only to Gettysburg, but we had a ton of fun. The ride was almost 3 hours each way, but Taegen was a champ and did awesome(have I mentioned how lucky we are)! We learned a lot about the civil war and were able to see many of the sites. Unfortunately it was cold and rainy most of the time.
Here Jared and Taegen are on top of the monument for Pennsylvania, you can see out to all of the battlefields and and the two mountains in the back are called Little Round Top and Devil's Den. (Big) Round Top. Here is the monument for Pennsylvania.
When we got to the visitors center it was pouring rain, by the time we got inside we were completely drenched and cold. I was able to dry most of my pants with the dryer in the bathroom though, and Jared and T did it the old fashioned way(air dry). Gettysburg is a very quaint town with lots of fun stores and restuarants and lots of sights to see, but as always its good to get home, sleeping in the same bed as Taegen does not equal a good nights sleeep!
