They went with songs to the battle, they were young, Straight of limb, true of eye, steady and aglow. They were staunch to the end against odds uncounted; They fell with their faces to the foe. They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years contemn. A... |

During that time I’ve learned a lot, had all kinds of fun and met a bunch of great folks from both sides of the Mason Dixon and all over the world, some remain good friends, some have moved on to other a... |

David,
I haven't read it but I've heard of it, now your description has peaked my interest.
By the way if you plan to visit some of the battlefields you may be interested in becoming a Civil War Trust member http://www.civilwar.org/ and help to save some of the ground from being over run. |

Our prayers are with his wife and family. We shall meet but we shall miss him. There will be one vacant chair. We shall linger to caress him While we breathe our ev'ning prayer. When one year ago we gathered, Joy was in his mild blue eye. Now the golden cord is severed, And our hopes in ruin lie. T... |
