GDG- Bliss Farm Site

[JIM COOKE]

Bruce, in light of the animosity with which this board has been filled recently, I'm gonna try to tread lightly here: you are kidding about a paved path to the Bliss farm site....right?

A Spring  Muster tour dealt with the 14th CT and the Bliss Farm.  That was an 
area  I was generally unfamiliar with, and this tour was an eye opener.  The  
fact that the 1st Delaware was on the same skirmish line was of interest as  
well.  
 
And the 12th New Jersey.



Some day it would be nice to see reconstruction of the Bliss  house and barn  
Now the area is mostly overlooked because of its remote  location and lack of 
buildings to draw visitors.
 
Remote, yes, but in clear sight from the stone wall near the Angle.   I think 
a paved path and a couple of signs pointing the way would be enough to  bring 
larger numbers to the site.
