This morning we shared breakfast at the Holiday Inn Express with my brother, Leonard, sister-in-law, Jolene, nephew, Len III and his wife Lisa. Then it was off to do some sight-seeing at the Stones River National Battlefield near Murfreesboro.

It reminded me of Gettysburg in so many ways, with the seemingly senseless loss of life on both sides of the controversy. The park is beautiful as was the day, but the impact is still somber.

Tonight is the rehearsal for the wedding, and tomorrow we celebrate!
More to come...
