Gettysburg National Military Park Pennsylvania

Another great Harvest Host location only minutes 

away from the battlefield.

It was originally a barn with ventilation

which is now covered in plexiglass.

Then it was used as a field hospital and

now turned into Battlefield Brew Works.

It was neat inside and you could 

smell the old wood.

This is where we started our 24-mile audio auto tour

which took over 3 hours.

Gettysburg National Military Park

This is not just a drive through place.

There is so much to see and do here that

you should plan at least half a day or more. 

We climbed the tower for a great 

overall view. 

Gettysburg National Cemetery where Lincoln's

Gettysburg Address was delivered 

on November 19, 1863.

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, 

conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. 

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived 

and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that 

that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But, 

in a larger sense, we cannot dedicate -- we cannot consecrate -- we cannot hallow -- this ground. 

The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor 

power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here,

 but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here 

to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. 

It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from

 these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the

 last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead 

shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom

 -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, 

shall not perish from the earth.
