F'burg VA Week 2


VCR entrance at Essex St
Just checking in.  We're fine.  Trailer's assembled and at Bremen, IN for painting.  Once we know when it's actually in preparation for paint, we can make some plans...that we'll have to probably change, too.

Pictures here are of the Virginia Central Railway (VCR) trail.  We've seen parts of it from the US 1 By-Pass in previous visits and had read comments about it on Facebook.  This week we decided to try to find it.  We started from the Old Mill Park and walked through town to the Battlefield Visitor Center.  From there we just started going down streets until we found it.  Turns out it runs southwest from Essex St along Lafayette Blvd in Fredericksburg, across the Blue and Gray Parkway, past Alum Springs Park, across the US 1 By-Pass, and past the Fredericksburg Christian School before ending.  It's slightly longer than 2.6 miles and follows the old railroad bed that runs from Fredericksburg toward Culpeper, VA.

So that was our great adventure this week.  Otherwise, Donna keeps visiting, still has doc appointments to keep, and we're hanging out waiting for our trailer to be finished.  Thanks for dropping by and checking up on us.    David
