See the nation while it exists.

If it fits into your agenda, a visit to the museum and battle field at New Market, VA would be a worthwhile addition. This is the battle in which the cadets from VMI participated.

Spend a few days in Charlottesville area. If you like history, this area is Disneyland. Monticello and James Madison’s Montpelier (not to be missed) are close by, as well as Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, the Wilderness, Appomattox. 50 wineries within 25 miles, including Trump Winery. Spectacular scenery, one great restaurant after the other. Have fun!

Keep all radar detectors out of your vehicle. If you get pulled over and they see one you will get a ticket.

Radar detectors are illegal in Virginia but not Maryland.

Agree with Laslo Fripp -- Mount Vernon is an excellent place. Its Visitors Center is very interesting, as are the tours of the house and all the farm outbuildings where Washington ran his export business. Until Trump, Washington was the richest President (in comparable dollars) from his enterprises.

Also wonderful and not far away is James Madison's recently refurbished estate, Montpelier. You can see the room where he wrote the Constitution, and the wonderful rolling hills descending into the distance from that upstairs room.

Farther south near Charlottesville is Jefferson's Monticello estate. Fascinating look at his ingeniousness as expressed in the home he designed and many of his instruments in his office, such as a copying device that enabled a penman to write on two pieces of paper at once.

Prepare yourself for the inevitable preaching about slavery; but it's still worth a look at these Founders' homes. Check the above websites for any fascistmask or fascistvax requirements.

ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR! Are YOU talking about TODAY or when I was there over twenty years ago? I was there! I know what I saw. I took photographs. YOU call me a liar! I call YOU a liar! I’m telling the truth and know it! I’m immune from liars. Lie to somebody else, it doesn’t work with me!

WHAT CONFEDERACY MONUMENTS? I spent two day looking for them. Now! I know you that you are either lying about such monuments being there years ago... or you’re pretending (aka “lying”) that the’ve always been there. What YOU say is there was NOT there when I was there! That is fact! OK! It’s been turned into some tourist money making venture that tries to appeal to the most wallets. I get it. BUT! I KNOW WHEN I’M BEING LIED TO... I have had PLENTY of experience at it.

“ARE YOU CALLING ME A LIAR”

No. You are ignorant. I live in Maryland and have been there probably 15 times.

Try Google. There are plenty of Confederate Monuments.

Dumbslit.

Memorials for every state and also other CSA brigades that fought.

and Maryland honors both Union and CSA since it had both as a border state.
