Gettysburg

Stores on York Street

 Gettysburg is an introduction to American history. In 1863 the biggest battle of the Civil War was fought in this area.  In 1865 Lincoln made his Gettysburg address here.  To rest our weary legs, we spent the day touring the town. The town is well kept and every second house seems to have been around during the Civil War.  We walked the main streets in the morning  and after lunch we sat through a 30 minute show depicting the 3 day battle of  Gettysburg.  We toured the National Military Cemetery and then returned to the hotel for bike maintenance and laundry.  All is ready for Tomorrow.
