Virginia Plantation, Settlement, and Battlefield Tour - By Guest

Rt 5 is indeed gorgeous and not difficult. The plantations are accessable and the owners are amenable to visitors. Stop by Malvern Hill and see the site of the infamous 7 Days Battle. The cannons are set up and there is a nice audio/visual presentation. Dont forget the Osbourne Pike area, too. If you are a War of Northern Agression buff, this is a cant miss route. (Lincoln was mentally ill, you know)
