Cultured Staunton, Virginia
Your article on Staunton, Virginia is right on the money. Every time I am in that beautiful area I stop and pay a visit. The Stonewall Jackson Hotel is the best location in town as it is in the center of all of the places I want to visit. You can get a free walking tour map at the visitor's center and check out the 5 historic districts. The large victorian homes and some of historical significance will amaze you. If you are a Civil War buff, check out Jedediah Hodgekiss's house. He was the principal map maker for the Confederacy. Just half a block away is a log house built by a freed slave that is still owned by the original family. When the weather is disagreeable, I just hop on the trolley which will take you around Staunton for free! The best time to come is in the fall. I'm from New York but must admit the fall colors along the Blue Ridge and Alleghany's may even surpass our splendid foilage. I'm told it's due to the large number of maples and sweet gums along the mountain ranges. Thank you so much for the wonderful article......— February 22, 2013 12:38 p.m.
