PDF Edit Markup

I would like to edit a PDF.  Looking for a program to mark up a PDF document.

The name brand program is Adobe Acrobat but this costs money and before I invest that way, I figured I would see if there are free or lower cost options.

1-11-2016 I did have a solution but forgot to record it here.  Blast!
