Gettysburg

Little Round Top, just below the Maine wall

We visited Gettysburg National Park and Museum. I hardly know what to say; the scope of suffering during and after the battle is humanly incomprehensible.

So far, my major Inktober accomplishment has been the (overdue) cleaning and inking of my fountain pens. Drawings are being done with both them and the dip pen, but knowing they will not necessarily be posted gives more freedom to experiment.

This one is from the end of September. The dots in the upper left hand corner came through from the next page, blots from shaking a just-filled pen to get it started.
