Finally got around to a little exploring today (emphasis on little), and one of the things this area of Virginia is known for is Civil War battle fields. The Manassas National Battlefield is a stone's throw away from my apartment, and I am sure it will be a regularly visited location. This is the spot where General Thomas Jackson got the nickname "Stone Wall" and where the 1st and 2nd battles of Bull Run took place.
The area is enormous and consists of many rolling hills, cannons, and old farm houses. Near the Visitor Center, there is an house called the Henry House, where the resident, Judith Henry refused to leave during the fighting. She was killed by cannon fire that was intended for snipers in her house. Her grave stone is by this house and is pictured below.
Nice shot man. Also I like how you can translate your website into Bulgarian if you feel like mixing it up.
