Gettysburg Tour with General Lee / Battlefield Tour / Gettysburg Battlefield RV Resort Review
Having first hand insight into the battle at Gettysburg really changes your perspective on the conflict. We were fortunate to get a real expert (General Robert E. Lee) as a tour guide and we share his insights with you. We also give you a unique perspective of the battlefield from our perch on top of a doubledecker bus. We also review one on the nicest RV campgrounds we stayed at during season 2. Jump on board and join us as we give you an exclusive tour of Gettysburg (viewer warning - the park was VERY busy so there was some background noise during the interview)

Gettysburg National Military Park, Pennsylvania - Full Tour HD (2017)
The Gettysburg National Military Park protects and interprets the landscape of the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg during the American Civil War. Located in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, the park is managed by the National Park Service. The GNMP properties include most of the Gettysburg Battlefield, many of the battle's support areas during the battle (e.g., reserve, supply, & hospital locations), and several other non-battle areas associated with the battle's aftermath and commemoration, including the Gettysburg National Cemetery. Many of the park's 43,000 American Civil War artifacts are displayed in the Gettysburg Museum and Visitor Center.
The park has more wooded land than in 1863, and the National Park Service has an ongoing program to restore portions of the battlefield to their historical non-wooded conditions, as well as to replant historic orchards and woodlots that are now missing. In addition, the NPS is restoring native plants to meadows and edges of roads, to encourage habitat as well as provide for historic landscape. There are also considerably more roads and facilities for the benefit of tourists visiting the battlefield park.
In 1915, the National Park Commission tested the battlefield guides and, due to the limited knowledge (particularly of the most experienced, e.g., only 1 in 8 could name the 7 avenues), established a school for licensing tour guides to charge fees.

Gettysburg National Military Park | Battlefield Tour | WanderLost Adventures
The first time we went to Gettysburg National Military Park, we bought a CD with an audio driving tour. We couldn't listen to it then because we didn't have a CD player in our car. We've carried the disc around with us for quite a few years, and when we knew we would be traveling back in the area, with a CD player in our van, we grabbed it off the shelf and headed out.

Driving the Battlefield in Gettysburg (2018)
Driving the Battlefield in Gettysburg
On July 12, 2018 we visited Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, and on one of our stops we drove a section of the battlefield starting at the John Sedgwick monument, making our way around and up through big and little round top, back down to the John Sedgwick moment. This video was a live stream which we shared with our viewers during that trip.
More information about John Sedgwick:
John Sedgwick graduated 24th out of 50 cadets from the West Point Class of 1837 and served in a variety of posts, including the armies of both Taylor and Scott during the Mexican War. In 1855 he became the major of the 1st Cavalry Regiment, whose colonel was Robert E. Lee. Sedgwick took over from Lee as Colonel when Lee resigned his commission.
Sedgwick went on to command a division in the Peninsula, where he was wounded. He was wounded three more times and distinguished for gallantry in the East Woods at Antietam. He briefly commanded the 11th Corps before being given the 6th Corps, and performed well during the Chancellorsville campaign.
At Gettysburg the 6th Corps was the last to arrive on the field after an epic 30 mile night and day march. Although much of the corps remained in reserve during the battle, various portions were committed as needed at scattered points about the field. At one point Sedgwick found himself commanding units on both the extreme right and left flanks of the army.
After Gettysburg Sedgwick continued to distinguish himself and the 6th Corps. He was killed by a sharpshooter at Spottsylvania on May 9, 1864 shortly after announcing that “they couldn’t hit an elephant at this distance.” He is honored by a monument on the Spotsylvania battlefield near the location where he was killed. John Sedgwick was the senior United States officer killed in the Civil War.
A lifelong bachelor, Sedgwick was buried at Cornwall Hollow, Connecticut.

The First Day at Gettysburg - Ranger John Nicholas
The battle of Gettysburg began on the morning of July 1st, 1863 as the Union Army of the Potomac and the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia collided northwest of the town of Gettysburg. The fighting that day was obstinate and bloody and would set in motion a series of events which would result in the defeat of the Confederate army. Join Ranger John Nicholas as he describes the opening shots of the battle of Gettysburg.
Gettysburg National Park - Gettysburg, PA
I'm at Gettysburg National Park and I've learned a whole lot about America's Civil War while I was here. That war was national tragedy and what I find most disturbing is that we're still dealing with the issue of racism in America today. Hopefully you'll enjoy my visit and it will remind you of why anyone who makes the United States their home for whatever reason, should expect to have the same rights and freedoms that their neighbors have, regardless of the color of their skin, the origin of their family or their chosen faith.
See you soon!

1863 Inn of Gettysburg: Gettysburg, PA (Rm 208, 1863 room)
Recently my wife and I took a trip to Gettysburg PA and when I was looking for hotels to stay at for a last minute weekend getaway the prices for the 1863 Inn of Gettysburg were pretty good for what we were looking for. However, there was no really good pictures or video for the specialty room we got, so this is just a little video I put together showing how the 1863 room looks and some of its features.
