These weeks just fly by!
The manager I interviewed with on Tuesday thought he would get back to me by yesterday. I haven't heard anything. In the meantime, I have an interview Monday for a temp job. At least I am finally getting interviews!
The second day of Alexandra's trip here was spent at Gettysburg and in Annapolis, MD. We started at Gettysburg, and spent 4 hours there. The first time I was there, I spent time in the cemetery. Alexandra and I did a partial tour of the battlefield. Four hours is not nearly enough time to spend there. We were both exhausted by then, and overwhelmed by the amount we had learned.
The North Carolina Memorial was dedicated in 1929. North Carolina had over 14,000 men in the Confederate Northern Virginia regiment. Over 6,000 of them were killed or injured during the battle. The statue was sculpted by the same sculptor, Gutzon Borglum, who designed the sculptures on Mt. Rushmore.
These pictures are of the battlefield. It was huge. We were standing on LIttle Round Top where Union General Goveurnor Warren was standing watching the fighting below. He is depicted in the statue.
In the distance, you can see the Pennsylvania Monument with the white dome. The entire area, as far as you can see, is the battlefield.
Annapolis On a whim, we drove to Annapolis in the late afternoon. We both fell in love with the city. Here is Capital Teas with the State Capitol in the background.
This is the Maryland State Capitol.

We ate pasta with fresh crab sauce on the street in downtown Annapolis. This is the view from our table.
The harbor at Annapolis.
More pictures tomorrow from our third day. Have a good week!
