Travel Thursday ( Remembering Gettysburg) a nurse's account

Remembering Gettysburg

Cornelia Oatis Hancock (1840-1926) was a Quaker, born in Salem, N.J. As a nurse in the immediate aftermath of the battle of Gettysburg, she provided a view of the field that few people saw. Clearly moved by the men she was serving, she wrote,
I feel very thankful that this was a successful battle; the spirit of the men is so high that many of the poor fellows said today, “What is an arm or leg to whipping Lee out of Penn.” I would get on first rate if they would not ask me to write to their wives; that I cannot do without crying, which is not pleasant to either party. I do not mind the sight of blood, have seen limbs taken off and was not sick at all.

Bells Mill Covered Bridge , Westmoreland County ,Pa.



I started with a Covered Bridge close to my home .. just proving you don't have to roam far to have an adventure .This Bridge is still heavily used today and is a important short cut route when traveling to and from my grandaughter's school . This picture was taken in the pouring rain but I think it just gives it Character . If your in the area you really should check this out .. sadly these historic pieces of history are disappearing from floods .. fires , vandalism or just fallen into disrepair . did I mention .. it's the LAST one in Westmoreland County ? 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the only covered bridge in Westmoreland County, the sides are covered with barn red horizontal clapboard siding, painted inside and outside; the roof consists of cedar shakes and the deck has lengthwise planking in wide tire track areas that are laid over crosswise planking.  There are no side openings other than the rather wide, typical, lengthwise eave openings. The entire structure rests on stone and mortar abutments that are reinforced with concrete both at the ground and road level. The bridge also has stone and mortar wing walls that are protected with heavy wooden guardrails.
Built in 1850, the Bells Mill Bridge is a burr arch truss design, 13 feet wide and 104 feet long.  The bridge is in daily use connecting South Huntingdon and Sewickley Townships.  The bridge was designed by Daniel McCain who was also the contractor.  This bridge was placed on the National Register in 1979. 

It is located on Bells Mill Road where it crosses Sewickley creek.  Bells Mill Road intersects PA Route 136 approximately 3.5 miles East of West Newton or 3.5 miles West of Madison.

Post Traumatic growth Syndrome 

Post Traumatic Growth

This happened to me, instead of these many tragedies bringing me down , once I came out the other side ..I was Happier than I've ever been , the past was gone and my life was a clean slate to write whatever I wanted on it ..possibles and the unknown became exciting and full of possibilities! I could and do make it whatever I want it to be .
I watched this Ted talk episode and it opened my eyes and I realized I was given a rare gift ..a second chance .

There's so many good ones on here , my favorites are  for losing weight quick , sinus congestion(really works) changing bad habits ( works great for nights to control my night time snacking ... this prevents me from eating at nights)
there are others and to tell you the truth I haven't found any of them that hasn't worked . This helps me change the habits that are ingrained in me after so many years of neglect . I highly recommend it .
I use this app and others each day , but that's enough for now .. time to make my bed and go down and enjoy my coffee while I listen to my waveen app for losing weight fast and watching my LightRX app. on my Ipad for S.A.D.

The Secret 2 (watch it here free!)

The power within

     I suffer from Fibromyalgia .. there were times I (months I didn't get out of bed .. yes bedridden , if there's one thing I had was plenty of time to think and thru the pain and Brain fog I did have moments I could research . I was determined not to go with main stream medical care .. I was NOT gonna take pills to cover up the symptoms .. I wanted it gone . .. holistica medicine was the answer for me . Anyone who is has medical problems  .. consult your doctor first  .. I am only offering insight to my pathway to freedom from this terrible disease .. maybe not a cure (I still will get flare ulps .. hopefully not) I am not a doctor , I only offer what worked for me . This is my journey .
    

1. I have the power within me to heal myself and how I learned this was watching the amazing Movie called "The Secret"  by Rhonda Byrne

I watched it on the advice of a friend and my life and how I look at it has never been the same .It really did show me I have the power to heal myself and give me the life I always wanted .No .. I'm not gonna try to sell you anything .. I know usually most who preach " free" are wanting something .. usually money in return for their "magical product " that will .. cure you .. heal you .. make you young again plus .. make you a ton a money. lol .. that's not me .. I'm just sharing how I dug my way out of severe depression .. to the point of being suicidal .. living in terrible pain from Fibro plus the terrible constant tiredness that all I could do is sleep .. to someone who I admire .. not only that but learned to love .. yes .. myself . I'm up .. I'm moving .. I'm traveling wherever the hell I want to go .. I call myself the Road Warrior .. or "The Covered Bridge lady" love my Adventures ! and No .. it did not happen over night  .. it's been a journey filled with trial and error but instead of giving up .. I just kept what worked and kept searching for answers.
First one is I watched the Movie The Secret and the realization that I could be healed .. that I .. could heal myself was born .
If you have Netflix it's still on there to watch for free . I highly recommend it . It changed my way of thinking .. it changed my life.
--------------------------------------------------------------

*** Everyday I'll take you a little further into my healing from Fibromyalgia .. and I hope I gave you something to thinking about , every ones Journey is different but .. wanting a better life free of pain is Universal*** best regards ... Linda DeMarchi
