7. Lovely! You guys have a great holiday too. Stay away from the fireworks!

8. I can’t think of Pickett’s charge without remembering the re-enactment footage from c. 1913 in the Ken Burns documentary, men on crutches, missing legs, hobbling up that hill. Still brings tears to my eyes.

9. I hope your holiday is wonderful, Carole!

10. Happy 4th!

11. Independence Day is a good thing to celebrate, isn’t it. I’m not much for fireworks, but I certainly enjoy this wonderful country we live in.

12. Wonderful picture.

    happy 4th of July

18. We visited Gettysburg in 2002 when we took #1 son on the college tour extravaganza. Smokey and #1 are both history scholars and so thoroughly enjoyed the experience. #1 and #2 son even re-enacted Pickett’s Charge for themselves; it was August and the temperature near 100 degrees. Authentic, except for the lack of anyone shooting at them.

19. Great picture and a great reminder.

20. The recreation stuff fascinates me. Doesn’t have the historic significance to me, though I know it is important. Hope you had a good 4th!
