<html><div>HI, Missed voting,as we were away by train mostly to the confluence of the Potomac and Susquehanna rivers for a wedding in Charles Town, WV, near Harpers [now spelled without an apostrophe] Ferry. I would have voted for the knight's armor's hanging place and the machine gun straps , as we ended up at Antietam Battlefield by chance and heard about the bloody battle there. Mostly I was interested in the wildflowers. Later did the interesting if small John Brown Wax Museum in HF and AT headquarters. Back late last night.
