Since DC was so busy on Saturday and we knew it would be worse on Memorial Day with a parade, motorcycle rally's and other celebrations honoring the troops, we decided to get out of town. Two hours from where we live is Philadelphia and Gettysburg. I told Ryan to choose and he said Gettysburg. When we got there we went to the visitors center and watched a movie about the battle at Gettysburg, saw the cyclone a big painting of the battle, and went through the museum. Owen was so good during the movie but half way through the museum he started screaming bloody murder. I had to take him outside and get him to sleep so I could finish the museum.
After that we followed the audio tour around town looking at the different war sites and memorials.

| Pretty much the whole town was once a battlefield! |
It was pretty hot outside and even though Owen was an angel inside (except during nap time) he didn't like it outside to hot!
