Gourmet Chef Elaine and I visited Gettysburg this fall and took a fantastic bus tour through the battlegrounds, monuments, and graveyards, even though there was a drizzling rain most of the time. When we got back to the tour station, I wanted something to remember the somber moments of the bloody three-day battle of Gettysburg, and in their gift shop, I found the coffee mug shown below. "We the People" are the first three words of the Preamble to the United States Constitution, introducing the US Constitution's fundamental purposes and guiding principles.
If you haven't visited Gettysburg, I highly recommend it. Bring a couple of tissues with you as experiencing the memories of this battle can bring tears.
