I think it would be very strange to live in Sharpsburg, an area that seems completely given over to Antietam Battlefield National Park.

I wonder if it is hard to live so much in the past and in the history of such horror.

As I said yesterday, I took very few pictures of the battlefields. Here are the pictures I took within the park area.

I also (of course) took pictures at the Antietam National Cemetery, as well as the town cemetery across the street, and the family cemetery within the park. Those pictures are on FLickr.
