Bob and I find Gettysburg to be a magical place -- sad, yes, but also so peaceful (ironically) and serene and beautiful that we keep going back to this place again and again.
We were in Gettysburg this past spring and sent you all several photos from there. The photos in this blog are from a different segment of the park and some of the monuments I had never seen before even though this was my fifth visit. Bob has been many more times than I as he's from Pennsylvania.
This visit to the Park, we arrived in late afternoon and were able to stay until sunset. That's when tranquility truly reigns.
From Wikipedia: "In 2008, the Gettysburg National Military Park had
1,320 monuments, 410 cannon, 148 historic buildings, and 41 miles of roads, and lanes; and one of the largest collections of outdoor sculpture in the world."
