Love the forests
I live in North Carolina, but most of my family (mom s side) is originally from Va so I spent a lot of vacations there. I m not overly familiar with Richmond but I love the state as a whole. Probably my favorite part is the Shenandoah mountains, which take my breath away with their peace and beauty every time I m there.I used to love driving through Roanoke and seeing the star as well, and stopping to eat at the Roanoker restaurant. When I got older i went there and it wasn t as tasty as I remembered, but still fun and nostalgic. I love Charlottesville. a beautiful corner of the world. I love the history....Williamsburg, Alexandria, and all those beautiful old towns. And I ve been to visit many presidents houses, such as George Washington s Mount Vernon.And I love that you can go to either the mountains or the beach easily...or even a big city like Washington or Baltimore are in easy reach for vacations and weekend trips.
