This was taken back in 2001.  We took Jim on a trip with us to see some Civil War Battlefields, presidential homes and Washington, D.C.  I was begging to go to Harper’s Ferry because I’d been there in 1977 and remembered it as a really great place.  Traveling with Mike is always very informative since he’s a walking Civil War Encyclopedia.  However, I can recall very little of the discussion that day, so I will resort to the wonders of the internet and give you this link:
