Gettysburg and Crabs

The Bauers made us a great meal tonight that we got to enjoy with the Brown's. Fresh Crab, ribs, and lots of great sides. It was our first crab experience and we both enjoyed it!




Gettysburg - On top of Little Round. It was nice while we enjoyed the Visitor Center, but when it came time to tour around it started pouring, thundering, lightening, and hailing! Some of our pictures are from the car while we quickly rolled down the window and shot.





DC and Baltimore


The Bauer's home- our amazing hosts here in Baltimore (not Jack by the way)


In front of the Mount Vernon Mansion- George Washington's home

Kaylee at the visitor's center with the Washingtons and their grandchildren (she fits right in, eh?)

Makaylee inspecting the grass on Federal Hill in Baltimore


Makaylee and I kicking back on Federal Hill- pretty amazing view of the city and harbor- you can see it a little bit in the background.

...by the dawn's early light.


Nicole checking out the inner harbor in Baltimore.

This is where we ate lunch- tough times.


We thought about buying this hat for our family- then whoever was in a bad mood would have to wear it for the day.


Makaylee on board the USS Constellation in Baltimore's Inner Harbor.

...and some more guns.
