 Spent two nights at the Moose Lodge in Gettysburg. They have a 15 acre area just outside of town where they have a pond and a big area to have functions. So we parked there for the two nights by ourselves and toured the town and battlefield. We were surprised by how large of the battlefield area was. We went by the visitors center and got a driving tour brochure which had 16 different stops on it. You could spent days looking at all of the monuments and fields where the battle took place. What I found interesting was that the battle only lasted 3 days. As I posted on the last blog we decided to go to Oregon. We made it yesterday afternoon. We were going to just take our time but have problems with the trailer jacks which allow us to unkook. So we spent 3 days connected to the trailer and moved across the country quickly. Put in several 10 days driving, which is something we don't do. Glad we decided not to try and unhook because I was just able to disconnect and it stopped working. Today my friend Pat and I will trouble shoot the problem. We are staying here for at lease a month. Pat all but has his home sold and as it stands right now will have to be out by the 14th July. Paper work on sale is almost done. I will be helping him do any repairs that the home inspector finds and now looks like some packing. It rained last night, which is not unusual here. Pepper will be glad she doesn't have to travel for a while.
