(I'm still not getting email updates for your blog, even though I've signed up again.) I'm hoping you'll get some answers quickly and that all is well. It looks like you had a wonderful time in Fredericksburg. We've never been there, but I'd love to go after seeing your photos. I laughed at your description of sliding back and forth on the polished wooden benches of the trolley. :-)) Laurel (www.ravenandchickadee.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09133248112440273123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5035932613092671755.post-23312493949138556432016-11-14T06:14:08.038-08:002016-11-14T06:14:08.038-08:00As is often the case, the guide really made it gre...As is often the case, the guide really made it great.

Sorry you weren't in Virginia when we were there, we'd give you the home town tour of Charlottesville including 3 oresidents' homes, the University of Virginia, some Shenandoah National park hikes and throw in John Boys house if that rings a bell. Safe travels to KY and back to your doctor.
