Last Monday we went to Gettysburg, PA, with all the other senior couples in the mission.  It was a very memorable experience.

These two pictures were taken inside a huge cyclorama.

We ate lunch in this historic inn.  It is a restaurant but also a museum.  They used to hide slaves in the attic. 

A beautiful and quaint city.

We took a two hour bus tour around the national battlefield.  We felt very somber but also grateful to the fallen soldiers as we learned more about the history of Gettysburg and that part of the Civil War.  

Lunch at Mission Barbecue after district meeting on Tuesday.
Six sister missionaries at the table next to us.  

The elders preferred to stay inside.

We had our four elders over on Saturday to watch General Conference.  They each brought a couple bags of candy.
Oh my, stomach ache!

Sunday, we all went to the Glen Burnie chapel to watch conference.  As always, it was so wonderful and uplifting.
  
A sweet sister in the Fort Smallwood branch always serves lunch to all the missionaries, and anyone else who is there, during the break.
