Plus when you cross the border from Pennsylvania into Maryland, there is usually a Mason-Dixon Line sign somewhere near the 'Welcome to Maryland' sign.
So it's a Southern state then, right? Quit teasing us; just answer the question, Jim!
Sounds like those field trips were fun and you learned a lot from them.
I have a couple of guy friends who are Civil War buffs. I'm pretty ignorant about it when it comes to the details. But, I get more and more interested in the history of war as time goes by.
