Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, United States
Got up early and while Tracy was snoozing walked into town for the 8 o'clock opening of the barbers. When I got there already 3 guys there bummer. Finally got the first cut and beard trim of the trip for 12 bucks. The grizzly old dude look is coming along nicely.
Rode round the battle sites of Gettysburg, absolutely amazing what those guys went through.
Established strategy completely overcome by new technology.
The battle fields are a national park and they provide a self guided tour, map in hand we rode through the battle as it unfolded. It is quite incredible seeing the land and how the Yankies won.
Weight is becoming a major issue with me how much stuff we are carrying and how much weight we are putting on with all the big breakfasts, must get both under control.
Here we go again..... Tom needs more to do
