Right now, I'd have to say good luck. I remember as a kid a trip to Lookout Mountain with my parents and getting a Confederate flag and hat and seeing the model layout of the battle that was originally housed in a building called Confederama. They still have a similar model on top of Lookout Mt. and I think it's now called the Battles for Chattanooga. It's still pretty neat.
Beyond that, my interest lay dormant for so many years. I don't think I saw the movie "Gettysburg" until about 1999. I'm not sure what awoke my interest. It might have been that computer game called Civil War Generals. I took my first extensive vacation in 1999 and went to Nashville, Chattanooga, Stones River, Kennesaw Mt., Stone Mountain, Knoxville, and Perryville.
Who'd have thought this would grow into an obsession?
