A tour around the town

You really need a couple of days at Gettysburg to visit the town and the park leisurely. But we only had one and took advantage of every minute.

We managed to get in a little shopping.

Visited with a life-size President Lincoln on the square.
Took in the local architecture.
(I really, truly love stone houses! This one was built in 1776 by Alexander Dobbin.)

And even found some old quilts.
All in all, a very busy day.
Until then, keep stitchin' . . .

Love the old quilt-- Bet you saw tons of history....hang in there with packing and unpacking...A bed a dish and a pot are all you need... besides quilt fabric....:)

When I lived in Baltimore we used to drive up to Gettysburg twice a year for the street fair...found some great quilts there!
