We took the ten-mile trip North to Fredericksburg, missing the Battlefield VC, however touching base at the Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce VC.
 
Today transformed into another long distance race session. Our objective was to visit Fredericksburg and the environs. Our first stop was at Guinea Station, the Shrine to Stonewall Jackson. To arrive we followed to a limited extent the course Jackson took to flank the Union troops during the clash of Chancellorsville and afterward the rescue vehicle course to the station arranged at the railroad tracks, a separation of around twenty miles. The thought was to take Jackson to the emergency clinics in Richmond through the rails. However, the Union had destroyed the track further south.

We took the ten-mile trip North to Fredericksburg, missing the Battlefield VC, however touching base at the Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce VC. Here we got strolling visit maps of the city and the attack by means of barge connects over the Rappahannock River by the Union powers. A portion of the structures still stay standing are still entirely functional, including the two noteworthy chapels, city corridor; Mary Washington's home, and so on. Truly, many structure were wrecked from the barrage by the two sides and the extraordinary hand to hand battle.

Strolling the lanes we took a gander at many classical shops, boutiques, and cafés. The fundamental shopping spread with the majority of the chain stores is on Rte 3, simply off of I95. Two of the spots, which truly got our eyes, were one, which cut lovely designs in huge eggs Ostrich, and so on.) and Lee's Gourmet Ice Cream Shop based out of Baltimore, MD; YUM, YUM, YUM.

We at long last found the NPS VC. They have a 22-minute motion picture described by James Earl Jones and a guided voyage through the Sunken Road found halfway up the slope to Marye Heights. Brampton House, which stands over the statures is still there and is the home of the leader of Mary Washington University. Indented Road has been reestablished to its 1862 state: rock. Four-foot high stone wall ascend from each side to shield it from disintegrating. The CSA lines kept running more than seven miles long. The coordinations of moving 114,000+ USA troopers and more than 60,000 CSA officers is quite astonishing.

Our last stop was Chatham house worked around 1770. It has the qualification of being one of only a handful couple of houses where both George Washington and Abraham Lincoln remained. Washington grew up adjacent and Lincoln came to visit with his military officials. During the Battle of Fredericksburg, the house was a medical clinic. Clara Barton, the organizer of the American Red Cross, watched out for the injured. Walt Whitman, the writer, likewise helped, searching for his sibling, who had been harmed in the Battle. He was not there, yet at an alternate medical clinic. Whitman wrote in one of his books that the excised arms and legs of the warriors were tossed into a heap by the catalpa trees. These tress are still there by the front of the house. The house itself went into rot, yet was reestablished during the 1920s with adoring hands by the Devores.
