Few pics from the NSD Trip over the weekend

Post by Little Powell »

Here are a few pics my wife and I took from the NSD trip in Gettysburg over the weekend. You can click on them for full view. Hope you enjoy!

From near The Angle. You can barely see the Virginia monument way off in the distance.

Can you see the Peace Light memorial? Wish I had one of those super zoom lenses for this one. :)

Had to throw in a pic of the Confederate Reenactors. They put on an excellent demonstration!

Very nice pictures. Tell your better half, next time don't be so stingy with the bits and take more pictures!
I can make this march and I will make Georgia howl.

They were near Confederate Ave. along Seminary Ridge. The woods in the background would be Spangler's woods.

Hi Little Powell.

Thanks for the pics.

What a great sense of peacefulness in some of those pictures. It's a beautiful country Little Powell. Hard to believe at one time a great struggle actually took place there.

I like the pictures of the sun shining through the clouds, nice shots. If you wife took those pictures, please pass along my thanks, and she should take it up fulltime...very nice shots.

Later!

Yeah, I never take enough pictures when I go.. I'm always too busy enjoying the scenery. I did take a few more, but they didn't turn out so good. These five are my favorite.

I also have a few from my trip in June that I'll see about posting later. They also include some from Fredericksburg, The Jackson Shrine, and Petersburg.
