Antietam Battlefield

Last Saturday we went to Antietam Battlefield in Sharpsburg, Maryland.  Antietam was the bloodiest single-day battle of the Civil War.  We spent all day touring the sites and enjoying the scenic area.  The drive there was beautiful as well.

  1. So interesting. What a great education the boys are getting by visiting all of these places.
    And what a beautiful scarf you are wearing. :)

  2. It's so weird to see you doing all of these things without us...how could you? So rude.
