Of course, we have very low humidity. <br /><br />I will have a look through your blog and see if there are any battlefield walks from your trip last year.<br /><br />A buddy and I traveled back east in 2010 and visited 12 Eastern Theater battlefields in a long five day visit. Great fun! Besides the great battlefield walks, I especially remember enjoying peanut soup in a little cafe in New Market and the fine hospitality of the couple running the B&B in Shapsburg.
