In April 2007 we had sold our home in Michigan and moved into our new fifth wheel trailer to start our adventure of full timing and exploring in our RV. We started our blog so family and friends can track us and see what we are up to. You can double clink any picture to enlarge it.

Gettysburg cycle-rama & ghost tour

Ghost walk time in Gettysburg! This window in a third floor building in Gettysburg was used by snipers during the battle. The other picture is the outside of the building (see the window up high?) where with many many bullet holes where the Union soldiers shot back at the snipers.





There are no ghosts in these buildings. The red brick building was one on many many hospitals. We were told amputated arms & legs were tossed out the windows into pits dug outside to bury the appendages. Holes were drilled in the benches & floods to drain the blood away.













This evening we went on a ghost walk, that's Mel and Judy in one pic and Stan & Connie in the other, like his hat? Judy really likes ghost tours but we all know ghosts do not exist.





















Today we all went to the Gettysburg cycle-rama. It's a picture in the round, you stand on one of 2 or 3 levels and the battle encircles you and is highlighted with lights as the battle is described.
