GDG- VC: How much time to allocate? Plus bookstores?

Alan,

I have been in the VC a few times since it has opened up and still haven't 
seen or read everything. I would allow a couple of hours to go through the 
entire place, read what you want and watch all the films (there are 7 films 
throughout the entire VC that are free). Remember also if it is a busy day 
at the VC that time could be extended. Last week I had to follow a middle 
school class around (to photograph for the CWPT) the VC and it was a mad 
house in there -- wall to wall people.

Now my suggestion for selection of Gettysburg related books either Gallery 
30 or the Farnsworth House bookstore.
