Pop has been talking about a trip to Gettysburg for weeks. He loves all history. This one Sunday he yells out “alright, get in the car…were going to Gettysburg”. We pile in the Cadillac, on the way up were getting a long shiur on the Civil War and how we have to learn to respect history….
We pull in to Gettysburg, up there with all the gift shops we see an old time picture studio. Pop loved getting these old time pics done. We wait around til the pic is ready for about 20 min. From there pop said “we already got a good parking spot, let’s walk to the main cemetery” . We start walking, about 3 minutes in pop asks a local “how far til the cemetery?” He tells us we got about 20 min walk. Pop says “man, I thought I knew my way round here better, let’s get back in the car”
We finally pull up to the heart of Gettysburg, can’t find a parking spot?? After bout 5 seconds pop says “Ahh, the hell with it, let’s go home. U seen one cemetery, you’ve seen ‘em all”. So basically, we drove out to Gettysburg, took a pic, and came home. Good times!
