Not been to Antietam, on my bucket list, but I usually stay in Gettysburg every other year (a day trip from my Mom's house) and I love the quaint village.

It's so fascinating to walk the Gettysburg battlefield and see the lay of the land and how it corresponds to what we've read of the battle. The Bloody Angle...it sends chills up my back. Ditto Fredericksburg.

I wish more Americans knew our history.
but did see the old candy store. The kids really liked the provost because the staff people were quite good. My daughter lives in Fredrick but really likes going to harpers ferry.
