Friday, before the tour began, many of us enjoyed hanging out in the hospitality room. This gave us a chance to mingle and take some photos. In the first photo, a replica of the Sperry is proudly displayed by Bernie Donegan, who's daughter had it made as a gift for him and carefully brought it for all of us to enjoy.

Then in the afternoon, we boarded the tour bus for the thirty minute ride to Gettysburg to visit the museum and battlefield.
