150th Anniversary of the Gettysburg AddressYesterday, November 19th, 2013 was the 150th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln reading the Gettysburg Address. I participated in Learn The Address a collaboration between Ken Burns and PBS.

To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, documentarian Ken Burns, along with numerous partners, has launched a national effort to encourage everyone in America to video record themselves reading or reciting the speech.The collection of recordings housed on this site will continue to grow as more and more people are inspired by the power of history and take the challenge to LEARN THE ADDRESS.

One thing that I didn't know about the address was that there is actually five different version of the address. You can read more about them here: Five versions of the Gettysburg Address

I just recently got a webcam setup to start blogging so I thought this would be as good a time as any to try it out.
