just entered ga, heading to savannah via andersonville and kennesaw.
went to chickamauga/chattanooga battlefield, lookout mountain yesterday. amazing views from lookout.
the extensive gun collection at c/c was amazing. a couple of them are the only known to exist.
battlefield is extensive, the first one dedicated. the veterans from both sides had a lot of input in sharing information and in the placing of monuments, etc. had it not been for thomas, the rock of chicamauga, the next year and a half would have been very much altered, that much more difficult.

the walk to the top of kennesaw was a chore, but the views made it worthwhile...tony, however, might disagree! atlanta was 26 miles away, but those buildings were easily seen. can't imagine making that climb in midsummer while clad in wool jacket and pants, carrying a pack, musket, etc.
ate dinner in macon, headed to savannah. spent too long at kennesaw to make andersonville.
