Thought I would do something different to mark the Anniversary. Well different for me at any rate.

So over the 1st-3rd July I'm going to watch the appropriate parts of the 1993 Movie one day at a time!

Not quite the Battle in Real Time but just a nod to the event and all those who fell over those three days in 1863.

There are also Pennsylvania Channel Battlefield Walk videos, many can be found on YouTube

Every so often when at Gettysburg, I'll see a ranger from one of the tours. It's like seeing Hollywood royalty.

Speaking of Gettysburg, I wonder whose brilliant idea it was to have Little Round Top closed to visitors during the 160th anniversary of the battle.

I was there in April and both LRT and DD had some major erosion issues they were addressing.

To be fair, the place is just like the rest of us, it ain't getting younger!

This was the 160th

They are right about the age issue. just not getting those below age 40 much. I remember when 25,000 plus hit the Gettysburg re-enactments of the past. Now those out there should be wearing GAR ribbons.
