Speaking of which...to show how things have changed: I went to high school at Lee-Davis, home then to the Confederates (School Song -- Dixie). While attending art school at VCU in Richmond, I lived on Monument Ave., and walked by the many statues of Confederate honorees. All now gone. I'm not "stumping" the issues here, or promoting any side, as I know there is still a great deal of pain surrounding all sides of the war among Americans, but things have changed in my home state.

A change I do strongly decry, however, is the one that replaced the wonderful woods and swamps where I hunted squirrels and deer near my home of Williamsburg, is now Busch Gardens...and a heck of a lot more people than when I wandered the hills and bottoms with gun in hand.

Back in the day, we used to play Woodberry Forest, and I won a state wrestling championship there, when Hector was a pup.
Beautiful country.
I don't get back to Virginia enough.

I was enrolled in a prep school named Woodberry Forest back in 1975 . Maybe the same one Which school in the prep league did you attend EHS perhaps ?

I lived in Virginia until I was three years old, so I guess I can't be accused of being a Yankee.

If none of your family lines was not a Virginian before the War of Northern Aggression, then I hate to break the news to you; Yankee. But not as bad as a scalawag. I am praying you are neither.

We had New Yorkers that fought for the South in my multiple family trees’ lines and the church I attend has Brigadier General McComb, a Pennsylvanian who had moved to Tennessee before the war. The war mostly depended on where you lived rather than your political views.

This was just a joke before anybody gets their panties in a wad but I was unable to put a smiley face on it from my cell phone. My Gr Gr Gr Grandfather is buried at Pt. Lookout, MD, as pro Southern of a county as any. But all the food, blankets, clothing, and medical supplies brought to them never made it into the prison. Stolen. He died in March ‘65 of “dropsy,” otherwise starved to death.

Off track above, but I’ve never found but one bargain at Greentop. The rest you have to start really low on an offer and they usually refuse.
