Friday adventure


On Friday Niks and I started up the river route just to see the scenery and to go to some place different for lunch, to explore shops possibly, etc. But there was a big accident ahead of us and we were stuck in a long line of traffic. The scenery was good, but the wait was not. So we turned around and headed south instead.

We ended up in Gettysburg after first stopping for a good lunch along the way. There I bought a few Pez dispensers. We visited Niks parents' graves in G-burg. Then we went into town and walked around. Visited Nivek's memorial brick, as we always do. Went into several antique shops and just generally enjoyed the beautiful weather. Then we drove to B-ville and went past Grandma's old house, and so on. It was a nice day for us.

On the way home, we stopped for ice cream. I had a banana split, and Niks had a big dish of black raspberry. I'm talkin' real ice cream, not the soft stuff. Posted by Hello

Sounds like fun. Where is Nivek's memorial brick, exactly?

The brick is right in the square. Nice location. The next time I see you, or you are here, I can draw you a little map. I'm very pleased that literally thousands and thousands of tourists pass over it each year. I was one of the first to buy a brick when they started the brick sidewalk project there, so he has a great spot. He would be pleased.
