These pictures were taken inside the new museum at Gettysburg. We enjoyed reading about the Civil War and taking the auto tour to drive around and understand the battles that took place here.
One of the cannons used in the Battle of Gettysburg.
Pres. Lincoln famous Gettysburg speed only last two minutes. The audience was very quiet after his remarks and Pres. Lincoln was left wondering if it was meaningful. The previous speaker, the Governor of Pennsylvania, spoke over 2 hours.... can you imagine! Of course, history would show that the Gettysburg speech is one of the most memorized speeches of all times. It takes you make for junior high! Four scores and seven years ago our fathers...
The Battlefield at Gettysburg with the sun setting.
