  • February 7, 2013. Joseph Poffenberger Farm. Antietam Battlefield. Sharpsburg, MD. To answer an earlier question, no, I don't live next to the battlefield but I do live within 15 minutes of it. I love to go there as often as possible because it is so lovely and peaceful. There are miles and miles of beautiful trails to hike and so many interesting and historic things to photograph. It's also close to the C & O Canal, which is a big favorite of mine and a wonderful old fashioned ice cream shop in Sharpsburg which I frequent probably much too often.

  • February 10, 2013. Joseph Poffenberber Farm again. Different angle, different fence. Antietam Battlefield. Sharpsburg, MD. Have a wonderful Sunday and thank you all so much for your nice comments. I'm doing my best to keep up but I'm working long days right now and 6 days a week. Sometimes I fall asleep before I get too far.

  • February 2, 2013. These sheep live on the Antietam Battlefield. Every time they see me they charge down the hill and come right up to the fence to look at me. I'm not sure what they expect but it's kind of funny!

  • February 21, 2013. Mumma Farm Cemetery. Antietam Battlefield. Sharpsburg, MD.   Thank you for all the nice comments on the horse in the snow. He was in the snow when I first saw him, that's why his back was covered with snow, but he was actually standing inside a small barn when I took the photograph. So for those of you who felt sorry for him I just wanted you to know that he did have access to shelter and could come and go as he pleased.
