You aren't that far from Harpers Ferry WV, swing on by and see where John Brown made his last stand.

You also aren't too far from the Antietam Battlefield, where more soldiers died in one single day, than in any other CW battle.

Bill,

This should return us to our regularly-scheduled topic, albeit briefly:

Check Post #1122 in last month's All-Topic.

We now return you to some blather about rediculousness....

All that stuff is made in Alaska.

IMO, the best place to buy native goods is in the pawn shops, this is also the case in AZ and NM.

yes we stopped at the saturday market.

Not so much the post itself, but the suggestion from Bill that Steve visit Antietam. In that post, Steve stated he would be visiting Antietam.
