7. American Revolution Museum at Yorktown Yorktown
French involvement in the American Revolutionary War began in 1775, when France, a rival of the British Empire, secretly shipped supplies to the Continental Army. A Treaty of Alliance in 1778 soon followed, which led to shipments of money and matériel to the United States. Subsequently, the Spanish Empire and the Dutch Republic also began to send assistance, leaving the British Empire with no allies. France's help is considered a vital and decisive contribution to the United States' victory against the British. As a cost of participation in the war, France accumulated over 1 billion livres in debt.

Bush Mill Stream Natural Area Preserve in Heathsville, Virginia

This small preserve is a great example of an environment that was once very common all over the Chesapeake Bay region: brackish tidal marshes and mud flats where fresh water streams meet the salt water rivers that flow into the Chesapeake Bay. Bush Mill Stream is one of the major tributaries of Great Wicomico River. During America's Colonial Period, ocean going vessels were able to sail up the Great Wicomico to the mouth of Bush Mill Stream to a point known as Deep Landing. Goods like lumber and agricultural products were often transported through this port. Today, changes in water levels in Great Wicomico have made it so that ships can no longer reach Deep Landing.

The preserve is open during day light hours and can be reached and explored on foot via the Deep Landing Trail and Heron Trail. You can also explore the preserve via kayak or canoe. The preserve is located in Northumberland County, on the Northern Neck peninsula of Virginia's eastern Tidewater Region, near the town of Heathsville.

A Trip to Monterey, VA.screenflow

A scenic drive from Snowshoe, WV, over the Virginia state line to the lovely town of Monterey. The quest: find a local restaurant with a good hamburger. Along the way we saw wildlife, drove the winding mountain roads to Cass, WV where a real steam locomotive takes you on a long trip through this mining region. Finally we found our holy grail, the High Restaurant. Look inside, and then take a walk with us through the quaint town of Victorian architecture.
