Taking a gamble that I will be OK in 3 wks.
Registration deadline was today. $20.00 per person x 8200... Serious money in these national events. Plus the public tickets. But, they do have to lease the land, water, hay, port-a-johns, etc...all kinds of permits from the local gov. |

I'll send you my cell #. With that large a crowd. We would have to decide on a specific spot after the battle. I'll scope the area out on Fri. Honestly, it is a once in a lifetime event to participate in or view. You will never have another opportunity to see that many reenactors on the field and I've lost track of the number of artillery pieces, calvary, etc...I highly recommend not missing it.

Never got into black powder but the guy who was the president of the company I worked for back in PA was really into it and had an amazing collection. He had a couple of flintlocks made in Lancaster Count PA from the 1700s and a total over 50 black powder rifles. |

That's going to be a real experience.
Been to Gettysburg at least 5 times and it never fails to leave me with goosebumps. BTW, good luck this time |
