Hi
Just walked the route of "Pickett's Charge" with my son. Nice. It was hot. :)
Sharpesburg tomorrow then on Monday on to Fredericksburg.
Suspect I might be doing some ACW when I get back home. :-\

I walked it a few years ago, on a much cooler autumn afternoon. I remember the ground as almost like a long glacis. It is a sobering experience and makes you wonder how any of them made it to the Union lines at all
Sounds like a great trip you have planned there. We walked the ECW Landsdown hill battle filed yesterday as part of our walk. The final part of the battle was across a very flat and open field and you can see why the Royalists were reluctant to cross it.
