Help me plan a Civil War site vacation.
Next year I am planning on driving my 911 to the Poconos in Pennsylvania. Pocono Summit, PA to be exact.
I am fascinated by the history of the civil war, and I know there are a lot of great sites to visit. Gettysburg is the obvious one. We have been to Mananas, VA but we ran out of time to see as many sites as we wanted.
Since we have a lot of time to plan the trip I would like any "inside information" from people that have been there and what are the best sites. Can we hire local guides and not just read the literature provided at each site.
We will likely spend several days just visiting the sites, so it is not just a one day thing.
It was humbling to realizes the body count at Mananas, and the two battles fought there. How close the southern forces came to Washington D.C.
All of this is stuff that bored me to tears as a kid in school. Now I find it fascinating and very interesting.
If there are people that want to meet up for a meal we can plan that next year as the time gets near.
