Our next stop was Gettysburg and we toured the battlefields by getting an audio CD that allowed us to drive around from site to site at our leisure. I found Little Round Top one of the more interesting points of the battle. In the background of this picture you can see the Devil's Den where some of the toughest fighting swayed back and forth.
This is the view from the Devil's Den looking up to Little Round Top. Just imagine trying to make an attack up that hill in all of that open space.
Carol and I did get to sit with Abe for a while but he was not very talkative.
Since Abe would not talk to us we went to visit Ike's farm which is close by. Sorry, no pictures of it but we did find it to be a very nice visit.
