I'm standing in one state, within a hundred yards of two others. Control of the town changed eight times during the Civil War. But its greatest fame resulted from an event that happened right in front of me, before the Civil War, due to the efforts of one man who now lies amoulderin' in the grave. Be the first to name the state (and the two others), the town, and the man, for a free lunch next time we get together.
Is your first name John? Or is it a name that one might find in the Book of Mormon?Comment

Checking the map, I noted (perhaps the first time anyone has done this) that as one approaches Intercourse, a wrong turn sends one to Blue Ball; but a right turn sends one to Paradise. We visited all three.Comment

Home! I'm envious and that's our bucket list. Actually, it's on Mrs. PAC's list, but I'm a willing go-along to stately homes (we've seen a few) in exchange for her joining me at battlefields and Roman ruins.Originally posted by Bo Diddley View PostComment

Bo Diddleys fingers look much different than I imagined them.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. UchtdorfComment

From the MoTab European Tour. Due to security concerns we weren't able to post to social media during the tour. Now that we are all safe at home I would like to share a few.
The first I came upon in Berlin. It is in a small park called Koppenplatz. When I first saw it I thought it was just a chair that had been left down at a desk for someone to sit and write at. But then I read the inscription around it and realized it was a memorial, which wound up being very thought provoking.

The inscription translates thusly:
…Oh the houses of death, invitingly appointed,
for the landlord of the house who was once a guest.
Oh you fingers, laying the threshold – like a knife between life and death.
Oh, you chimney stacks, oh you fingers,
and the body of Israel going up in smoke!“Every player dreams of being a Yankee, and if they don’t it’s because they never got the chance.” Aroldis ChapmanComment

Going to Delhi in October for business and will probably take a side trip to visit the Taj Mahal. Any pro tips or recommendations?
Thread police, if there is a better travel thread, feel free to move this.Comment

Try to stay in Agra the night before, avoiding Agra, which is a pit, and do your best to get to the Taj at or just before dawn. Fewer people, interesting light.Originally posted by BigFatMeanie View PostPLesa excuse the tpyos.Comment
