First we visited the Quilting Sew Easy shop in Gaffney, SC.
for two patterns and a license plate. Beautiful shop, big selection. http://www.quiltingseweasy.com

Next stop was the Cowpens Battlefield site. http://www.nps.gov/cowp/index.htm
A major battle was fought here during the Revolutionary War. |
 |
| We walked around the mile-long battlefield site and tried to stand like militia men. You could get the wooden rifle from the gift shop. |
 |
| I photograph most of the info stations so I can read them later and have a reference point. |
We ate lunch at Arby's with coupons. Yummy.
 |
| Next stop was the Kings Mountain battlefield site. Also another turning point in the war for independence. The local militia played a very important part in defeating the much larger British army. http://www.nps.gov/kimo/index.htm |
 |
| Commander Ferguson' rifle, from the British side. He's buried on King's Mountain. |
