Home From Virginia

We have been home from Virginia for a week now and are starting to get back into our routine, if you can ever get back to a routine after a great event. Visiting Virginia and the surrounding area was a great event to me. Other than getting to spend time with my daughter and son-in-law and seeing the growth in my grandchildren after almost two years, getting to see D.C., Gettysburg, and Washington and Lee University was fabulous!

It was so exciting to see places I have read about for almost 60 years. Getting to walk battlefields that Lee, Jackson, Stuart, and Custer walked was amazing. Walking on the streets that Lincoln, Jefferson, and Madison walked was moving beyond compare. And to see the great monuments we have built to honor them was exciting. And to do it with my grandchildren can not be topped.

We were also lucky enough to be guided around the campus of Washington and Lee University by our beautiful granddaughter.

All in all a good trip.
