3 farms were in the middle of this battle which was important because it prevented the Confederates from taking Washington DC. Families hid in the basements until the fighting was over.
What is this doing in a corn crib in the middle of a National Park??? All men want machines!

Cooking Slippery Pot Pie in the Summer Kitchen. It looked so good we are going to make some at home. [In our modern stove] In the pumpkin is a dessert made for carolers during civil war times. Cut the top of the pumpkin off -put inside cut up apples,raisins and cinnamon. Let pumpkin sit by fire for many hours and it all slowly cooks. [like a crockpot] Scoop out contents
which will also include the now cooked pumpkin and what a treat it was!

The summer kitchen [above inside] to a house we toured and listened to a storyteller

It was cold ...the first place we went was snowy....ahhh We were there to see a waterfall but the access road was icy and snowy [no thank you] and the hike would have been a 3 mile round trip journey of which we were not equipped to do! I will leave that to the groups of Boy Scouts that were there for a Saturday hike. We had a busy day but missed camera opportunities due to leaving the camera behind or not knowing we had it! Geezzzz Ma. Sunday we went to the Monocacy Battlefield taking an audio tour and a few pictures. It was a rainy,gray day but still fun.
