Dunker Church
The church was originally built in 1852 on land donated by Samual Mumma by the German Baptist Brethren. They were known as Dunkers or Dunkards for their practice of baptism by full immersion. The Dunkers were pacifists who believed in simplicity and modesty, which included not placing a steeple on their meeting place. The church was the the center of some of the hardest fighting at Antietam, its whitewashed walls an objective visible through the gun smoke. During and after the battle the church became a haven for the wounded.
The church survived the battle but was destroyed by a storm in 1921. Its materials were stored and preserved. For many years a lunch stand catering to battlefield visitors stood on the foundations. For the 100th anniversary of the battle in 1962 the church was rebuilt and restored to its 1860s appearance using many of the original materials.
“Let us here today, in the spirit of the Brethren who built it more than a century ago, rededicate this building to the advancement of peace among nations…. to the brotherhood of all mankind.” from address delivered by J. Millard Tawes, Governor of Maryland, September 2, 1962. Reconstruction of the historic Dunkard Church was made possible in 1961 by a special appropriation of funds by the State of Maryland.

This poor little bee came to take a drink while I was photographing the damsefly nymph in a can of water and fell into the water. I liberated it and it frantically groomed itself for twenty minutes. You can see its spiky, wet fur.
"These Dunks say Panda loud and clear with a simple black/white colorway. As you can see they also have a Panda image on the tongue and fur is featured on the center/back panel. Nike even used a good grade of leather, so good that Po probably has a couple pairs on ice."

This is my cat, Spenser, dunking his cat biscuits. I like how he waits for the beep, to be sure it's ready. the other strange thing this cat does, is steal tea bags to make tea in his water bowl, but this time he's dunking in plain water.
