Antietam
October 13-15, 2006

For this years battlefield trip we went to Antietam. The weather was cold and sunny. We set up camp late and some tents where easier to put up than others. In the morning patrol cooks made breakfast and then we packed up gear for a hike. The rest of the day we hiked around the battle field visiting historical sites like Bloody Lane. Mr. Fornaro did a great job of telling us battle stories at each of our stops. Dustin tried to teach us how to march with no success. We had many great experiences at Antietam this year.
