Good Evening, MMC~
Have a cozy & merry night!


 
I'm limping a bit tonight (twisted ankle a bit when running besides hurting my lower back a little)...and I'm tired as heck cause work is overwhelming...but nothing...nothing will stop me from...reaching the Pines and seeing Carl (it just may take me a little extra time to reach it without a vehicle).

We are heading to Philadelphia. My wife and I went to Philly a couple of years ago for a ComicCon, but we did not get to go to any of the sites. My wife is an art teacher and working on her Masters in Modern Art History, so she wants to go to the art museum. I, being a history teacher, want to see all of the historical places too. On the way to Philly we are going to stop at Gettysburg for a couple of days. I am a big Civil War buff and I teach a class on the Civil War. On the way home from Philly we are planning on heading to Sharpsburg Maryland for the Battle of Antietam. Then we will go to Harper's Ferry, West Virginia.

The Gettysburg, Antietam and Harper's Ferry is mostly for me. With my Civil War class, I take the students who want to go on the trip to those locations. The last time we took the trip we went with another school as a joint trip. This was because I am really good friends with the teacher from the other school and he has done the trip for the last 20 years. Next year I will be just taking my students and will need to lead the trip myself, so I want to go this summer to make sure I know where I am heading and can plan the trip the way I want it to go. So, I figured since we were headed that way as a family, it was a good chance to visit with no pressure. Plus, my wife enjoys the history and both of my kids are older enough to enjoy the trip.
