I actually will do dishes and wash clothes...I can't stand a dirty house. I do most of that through the summer anyhow because my wife works 60+ hours a week from may to September and takes care of her mother on her day off. I only work 32 hours a week, starting monday, now that the economy has tanked.

Yo JA,
if it was just a man-guy road trip to Gettysburg I would seriously like to take a day and experiene the scene of Pickett's charge with a brother in Christ who I admire but don't walk in lockstep with.
Over the years I have come to better understand the unimaginable sacrifice and suffering at Gettysburg (and Antietam). I am so sobered (humbled) by the cost paid by so many of the youngest, and least influential, citizens of our country.
So, maybe someday we will meet at the Cycloramma or stand in front of the culvert at the end of the cornfield (Antietam) and reflect on the ways of man and the opportunities we have in the Kingdom of our God.
warm regards,
tbpew.
