Trump Rally in Richmond

 It's rare that Trump makes a stop in my hometown, but I had to see him in person, and it was glorious. I waited 4.5 hours in line to get into the Richmond Convention Center , and I only missed 10 minutes of Trump's speech. As I entered the room, I felt almost tears of joy as I finally saw him in person. It was well worth the wait. The Mayor said Trump is not welcome in Richmond, but most people who came to the event were from the Richmond area. I estimated around 2,000 or more people, some never were able to get in the building in time. The lines wrapped 2 miles down to Broad St.  I only witnessed about 4 "anti Trump" protestors at the event. Mostly older boomers, not even VCU kids.  It was nothing like 2016 when they were attacking attendees. I missed Trump in 2016 , so I'm glad I made this venture. . Here are some pictures from the event

Lee Jackson Day Weekend- Lexington VA!

 Although the Commonwealth of Virginia sadly no longer recognizes Lee-Jackson Day Weekend, many Virginians still honor and celebrate it. Here are a just a few shots from Lee-Jackson Day weekend in Lexington ! There was an awesome parade we did through downtown Lexington , which was preceeded by a memorial service at Stonewall Jackson Cemetery. I marched with a large group of close to 100 people, and many spectators on the street waved and said "God Bless, Y'all!" to us. We got  almost all positive feedback and encouragement. The town itself is run by liberals, but many that live there are not on that side , and are real patriots. I enjoyed walking through Lexington, I haven't been there in many many years. On my way back, I stopped at the Depot Grille in Staunton, Virginia- a fun restaurant which was converted from an actual railroad depot. My waitress was a doll. The weather was chilly, but bearable.  It was a fun time overall !             ...

The Wayside Inn, Winchester, The Mountains, and Merry Thanksmas

I had to pick up my sister in Leesburg early for Thanksgiving, so I decided to stay at the Wayside Inn located in Middletown, Virginia, near Winchester. This gave me an option outside of "nova" and a chance to breathe. I have stayed there a few times before and it's like staying in a living museum.  I had a slight falling out with the management over my bookings, but we have made ammends. They no longer have independent live music, but instead  have weekend bluegrass jams. I love the history and the ambiance. This time I stayed in the Jubal Early room- the room once occupied by Confederate General Jubal Early. It was one of the rooms in the hotel that has the least amount of "ghost" activity, however, I felt a little odd , as just my sister and I  and two other guests were there the entire night. On my side of the hotel, no guests had arrived and the room across the hall was unoccupied.. The entire side of  my  hotel was empty! I did hear some strange things, su...
