Day 3 - afternoon

After lunch at DQ, we headed to Shiloh National Military Park at Pittsburg Landing on the Tennessee River.  Four of the children barely completed the Junior Ranger program.  Note: it takes a whole day to really explore Shiloh NP and the Shiloh Indian Mounds.  There are also markers for the Trail of Tears along the highways surrounding Shiloh.

It was a very warm 93F, but it was not unbearable.  

Ken found more Civil War music CDs in the bookstore and I found a book on Native Herbal remedies.  

After the kids were sworn in as Junior Rangers, the Ranger pointed out the Pennsylvania monument on a map and we headed to see it and get some photos before saying goodbye to Shiloh.

We found a great little RV park in Corinth, MS to stay for the night -- Cross City RV.  Electric and water hookups and WiFi for $18/night plus the owner gave us lots of information about some fun local spots to see.

One more note from Day 2 - At the beginning of the Domes and Dripstones Tour, the Ranger gave a 10 minute talk about safety, etc., regarding the tour.  At the end of his talk, he asked if there were any questions, Isaac piped up and all hundred or so people heard him say, "Can you repeat that, please?" At which point the whole crowd chuckled, and our tour began.
