On May 11, from 10 am to 2 pm, National Park Service staff will open four historic structures on the Gettysburg battlefield to the public for a rare look inside. The selected buildings range from those newly restored to those in need of repair. Visitors will be able to explore the Abraham Brian House; the Lydia Leister House—Meade's Headquarters; and the Jacob Hummelbaugh House. Our friends at the American Battlefield Trust will also open the Mary Thompson House—Lee's Headquarters as part of the Doors Open event on May 11, from 10 am to 2 pm. link

I was there for the reenactment last year. I drove up from Texas – a long way. I really wanted to see "the cleft rock" on the Rose Farm, but the Rose Farm is a working horse farm and closed off to the public. Still had a great time. If I lived in the area I'd love to go take a peak at these structures, but it's kinda short notice, so poor me. Cheers!

Yeah, I won't be flying in from California, either.
