Gettysburg Pennsylvania









As a family, we were able to visit Gettysburg this week! Josh is out of school due to fall break. :) The only fall break he'll ever get in law school, so we thought we should do something fun. We had so much fun. We followed what they called the "auto tour" of 16 different locations with monuments at them. We spent a couple hours reading about the monuments, and driving the national park. Its amazing there because you can truly feel that it's a sacred place. I was amazed how much I learned about what happened at Gettysburg. It's funny how much you can forget when you learned about these kinds of things so long ago. The drive was beautiful. The trees here are all just starting to turn from green to yellows and reds, and oranges. In another month or so it is going to be amazing! The weather was perfect. We aren't used to it being so warm this long. It snows at least once before Halloween in Salt Lake every year, and we have yet to see anything like that here yet. We are excited for all the opportunities we will have here.
