A great place to visit
Living in Virginia, there are a few really nice places to go. The Shenandoah Mountains come to mind, but there is also Colonial Williamsburg. Consisting of a number of historic buildings from the 1699 to 1780, the area contains a number of important sites. The former capital of colonial Virginia, it straddles the counties of York and James City County.
With extensive renovations to the buildings, there are also a number of people who dress, act, and talk as the colonials did. Many of the great people of our history spent time here, James Monroe, Patrick Henry, and Thomas Jefferson to name a few. It is a wonderful place to visit and a good place to teach the kids about the values our country was built on.
