Virginia is one of the states I remember going to as a kid. Skyline Caverns was a place we were taken to and it was always breathtaking. We parked along the highway that had tables and a standing grill, where dad would set up the charcoal and make hot dogs. That was a great time for young ones. And if you count the Washington D.C. area with Virginia then we've been to the sights there. We have silent movie snippets from the Capitol and the Washington Monument but I was only a couple years old at the time.

Roadside picnics
I know this is mostly my list, but my wife took a girls trip with her mom and sisters and visited Williamsburg and the surrounding areas. They went on tours, at in nice places, and stayed in a decent hotel. Sounded pretty average to me.

As I don't have the District of Columbia listed as one of the states (since it isn't) I'll mention that when we visited Morgantown, West Virginia, we took a day trip into Washington D.C. and took in a number of the sites. I probably have photos of that somewhere but haven't found it yet. I know our kids went to the Smithsonian and we hit the Lincoln and Washington Monuments, so I'll add those if I ever can find them.
Until next time,
