Like you say, the land looks much the same now as it did back then and that adds to the reality of feelings one experiences there. Luckily there were no crowds the day I was there and that went a long way towards my feelings and understanding of where I was.Al Bossencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04307619781955351484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-6821301603928655062016-07-30T08:17:59.637-07:002016-07-30T08:17:59.637-07:00Thank you for coming along :-) It was indeed a sad...Thank you for coming along :-) It was indeed a sad time.Jodee Gravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02247098923871155546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-44890445507780044102016-07-30T08:00:45.468-07:002016-07-30T08:00:45.468-07:00Thanks for this great travelogue piece.

Sorry it was too hot for you. This is such a sad place. It’s hard not to think that we deserved such a defeat for our policy of genocide alone but war seldom seems justified and the deaths are tragic. Thank you for giving me this look at a place I definitely want to experience. I’m wondering if, like Gettysburg, it feels like hollowed ground and you can feel the spirits of those who fought and died here.<br /> Really really hoping you have no more slide issues. Glad the 2nd campground turned out to be so much better than your first. I don’t get people who pay $81 a night either to bring their own home and sheets and towels. But I do love lightning storms especially when they are far away and look beautiful in the sky.<br />Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328866430156879312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-76168692879961440562016-07-27T08:13:48.322-07:002016-07-27T08:13:48.322-07:00This one was extra specialThis one was extra specialJodee Gravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02247098923871155546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-68470551672767537892016-07-27T08:13:34.336-07:002016-07-27T08:13:34.336-07:00Ha! :-)))))) It was a tart one.Ha! :-)))))) It was a tart one.Jodee Gravelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02247098923871155546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-40397505759336860322016-07-27T07:28:41.098-07:002016-07-27T07:28:41.098-07:00No matter where you go you always find great thing...No matter where you go you always find great things to see.
