The War Continues

Americamps RV Resort
Ashland, Virginia

We'll really miss all the delicious crabs we had in Delaware.  Yesterday we drove across the Chesapeake Bay to Ashland, Virginia (just north of Richmond). 

We spent so much time touring battlefields in the Fredericksburg area that we never made it to the Civil War sites in Richmond.  Both of us have ancestors who fought in this area during the Civil War.

                                                 


We couldn't leave the area without visiting the Stonewall Jackson Shrine at Guinea Station. He died here at the Thomas C. Chandler's plantation ("Fairfield.") in the plantation office building.















We really enjoyed our stay at this campground.  A free breakfast was served each morning with Belgian waffles, fruit, juice and coffee.  We thought we would gain too much weight if we stayed another day.
