Gettysburg and Antietam

We took Lauren, Nate and Maddie to Antietam and Gettysburg a few weeks ago. They are really neat places to visit. Lauren is taking American History right now and will be learning about the Civil War soon. It is neat to be at places that you are learning about. This is the Burnside Bridge at Antietam. We went to Antietam first and took a bunch of pictures and then the battery to the camera died so we didn't get any photos of Gettysburg. They have a brand new visitors center there that is awesome, for lack of a better word. Gettysburg is a must see.

This is the Dunker Church at Antietam. There are some famous Civil War photos with this little building in the background.
This is a monument at Antietam. The single bloodiest day of the Civil War took place here.
