Very cool. Fifteen years ago I lived up in Northern Virginia, not far from Manassas Park Battlefield which was the site of the Battle of Bull Run, the first major battle of the Civil War. A lot of men died at that site. During the Christmas Holiday, the park puts up a Christmas Light display is popular. When our daughter was small it was an annual tradition for us. On year, we headed out there after dinner and I was really tired. I kept dozing off as we drove through the park looking at the lights. And finally towards the end I just conked right out. I woke up just as we left the park and were headed down the side road that drove past the actual battlefield to get back on the highway and head home. Hubs was driving really slow as it was really dark. As we were driving past the battlefield, I saw a soldier, in uniform walk across the road just ahead of our headlights.
