fireman 1,021 #10 Posted January 14, 2015 Absolutely love Gettysburg. If you've never been there, your in for a treat if you like history especially about the Civil War. Go to the Visitors Center and plan your couple of days. We have been going every summer for the last few years and see new things every time. If you want specific things let me know and I'll pm you a list of what I feel are the best to visit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

squonk 41,050 #16 Posted January 17, 2015 (edited) Watch out for the Domino's Pizza. It's so hot it about burns through the hotel room's table. Also the Harley dudes that arrive at midnight that circle the hotel like a bunch of Injuns can be annoying! And that traffic circle filled with tour buses can be a pain. Lincoln Diner on 34 has an awesome breakfast! Edited January 17, 2015 by squonk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
