There will be a bit of an epilogue post to finish this trip up as we head back west cross country.

Your post on Antietam National Battlefield was thoughtful and very well done. Thank you. This past June Julie & I were down to the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery for a burial service. It is sobering to walk through the row after row after row of headstones, as it should be.
My Dad's twin brother and his youngest brother took part in centennial (1960's) observances and reenactments of the battles their grandfathers fought in during the Civil War.
We appreciate your work and perspective on documenting your travels.
And, of course, looking forward to more.

Hi- Very few of the photos are on my MacBook, several of the initial videos are. The statue, the monuments for the Wright Brothers, and a few of the ponies are about it, even after ~10 minutes of waiting.

Sorry about that and thanks for letting me know. I had this issue once before but thought it had been resolved, I'll keep tinkering with it. It's hard to diagnose as they all show up for me on all my devices, I think it may be a Mac/Apple related issue.

Thanks for the trip.Growing up on the east coast,Philadelphia area I always enjoyed all the history
that has been preserved.
I noticed in your first video you "feeding" the stove,I have that same Vermont Castings stove.
Got it in 2005 ans it has served us well over the years.
Don't use it much anymore,but a great warmer.
Thanks again for posting some familiar sites.

Hello Ed, Great to catch up a bit on your travel adventures. The same problem dr Tucson had I had had but it has since cleared up (Mac). The northeast is a hard place to camper travel outside the frost free months. Glad you figured out how to go. I missed where you have landed. Hope your next chapter continues to be happy traveling.
