Monday, June 4th Another quick visit day.

Today, we took it easy a little, Cooper slept in until around 9 or so, then we went into town and did laundry- then Coop and I headed over to Appomattox Courthouse NHP for a revisit for me, a first visit for Coop. 

I got all three stamps for this location, and we enjoyed the museum exhibits- 





The McClean House, where the treaty was actually signed

From here, we drove over to downtown Lynchburg to visit Lynchburg City Park, home of the Lynchburg Hillcats, the High A team for the Atlanta Braves.  The team was out of town playing Myrtle Beach, but they were very accomodating and opened the team store for us.  Got a ball and pin. 


Our stay here in Lynchburg/Gladys is now complete, we got to most sites we wanted and planned to, missed one or two- but we saw lots of things. Successful stamp visits, and two baseball venues.  

Tomorrow, we are heading up US 29 to Charlottesville, Va, then over on I-64 to I-81, where we will pull off at Middleburg area for a visit to Cedar Creek and Belle Grove NP, and then we will roll into Brunswick, Maryland, where we will be for 6 nights.  We also will be at a Frederick Keys ballgame tomorrow night. 

After that, we have 5 full days of the Maryland National Parks and ballfields, a trip to Washington DC on the MARC train, and a run over to Baltimore to see the Orioles play on Sunday.  Woot Woot!!
