Bacon, battlefields and visitors

We tried to grill bacon over a campfire this morning in the civil war spirit. Many of us went to Anteitam in the afternoon for a film and guided tour. Really interesting and REALLY depressing. Jean's sister and brother in law have joined us for the evening. What an amazing thing it is to be in West Virginia and surrounded by such good company.
Now a word from vincent- We were trying to make a campfire dessert, it started to rain, and Domenico was standing over the fire for ten minutes, and he tried to protect if from the rain... they burned:( While Domenico was standing over the fire trying to protect it, he tried blowing on it to make it stronger.

P.S. Jean, I was cracking up at the news that your new name is "Deborah", although your second note did clear up a LOT of confusion!

  1. I am waiting for some audio from Vinny!
    I also know that Gabe would love to be there at Civil War central. I can't wait for new pics!

  2. This is so cool - what a great way to log your adventures! Thanks for inviting us in. I'm SO sad we didn't get a chance to catch up before your departure...but glad you got out of Maine during this horrendously wet stretch! Enjoy the ride...and the visit in SpringLake, MI! Tim will likely be in Madison when you drive through WI. Give him a call...he can point you to the local pizzeria where Vinny can get a slice of Mac'n Cheese Pizza!
    Thinking of you....Lisa
