Today I enjoyed a beautiful late fall day volunteering at Antietam National Battlefield. This year
from my battlefield ambassador
post in the North Woods, I have observed the renovations of the Joseph Poffenberger Farm as they progress. My hat is off the the tremendous workmanship and skill of the men and women from the Cultural Resources and Maintenance Divisions at Antietam who are doing this important work. Here are several
photos taken as the renovation progressed and photos of the
property
as it looks now.
All the pictures were taken at various times this year. The first two are photos taken of the farm from the intersection of Mansfield Avenue and Dunker Church Road
looking northeast. The first was taken on January 16, and the second was taken today. The next
two are of the house. They were taken on May 31, and today. The Save Historic Antietam Foundation (SHAF) contributed $10,000 towards the renovations of the farm house. The next four are of the barn in various stages of dis-assembly and reconstruction. The pictures were taken on April 18, May 31, June 21, and today. Finally the last two of the farm are taken from the southern fence of Miller's Cornfield. They were taken on April 12 and today. I have several other posts in the works and hope to get back on a regular routine soon. For now, enjoy these
photos and the
beauty of this great place.
