This is an online journal of our travels through approximately 175 miles of "Hallowed Ground" in our beautiful Mid-Atlantic region, beginning in Gettysburg PA, traveling south to Charlottesville VA. We are following the route suggested in the book The Journey Through Hallowed Ground by David Edwin Lilliard (The Journey Through Hallowed Ground Partnership, 2006). We plan to visit all of the stops along the route through the course of this year. Please stop by [often] to see where we have been lately!

Where will it end??? (And other fascinating memories...)

I had planned to finish this tour in 2012... but now (in the beginning of 2014) we have yet to reach Charlottesville. I guess I'll just have to keep on touring. Culpeper is 70 miles south of my home in Charles Town. Charlottesville is 46 miles past there, about another hour. We are now on the third leg of the trip, nearing the end of the Journey Through Hallowed Ground. There is still so much to see along the way! We have done some backtracking recently. Here are some highpoints:
The Bull Run Festival of Lights (Centreville VA, 2013). Tour of the Utz Potato Chip Factory (Hanover PA, near Gettysburg, Nov 2013) Tour of Old Town Harpers Ferry (WV, Oct 2013). Close to home and always interesting, even during a government shutdown.
