American Sketchbook

You’ll find them amongst unkempt grasses and above road signs that have seen thousands of passersby. A speck of time on the long road that occupies the traveller’s soul from outset to terminus. Three wooden crosses, eternal.

@nd_winencheese Never liked that motto

@Amerisketch It's for lovers

Tell me your favorite thing about Virginia.

Railroad Bill, Railroad Bill He never worked and he never will And it’s ride, ride, ride Gonna drink my whiskey Drink it in the wind The doctor said it’d kill me but he didn’t say when Ride, ride, ride

It is meet and right to make the world around you beautiful.

@welshwitch78 @1776pax Perhaps the market will give you that chance one day

@Amerisketch @1776pax At one point we considered moving down, but the growth in the area has been crazy, driving up prices.

@VickiLQ1776 Indeed

@Amerisketch There are some many wonderful things to love about Virginia - her people, her history, her beauty, and highlighting all those treasures is God’s gift of true four seasons.

@welshwitch78 @1776pax Could walk around there for days. Wouldn’t even mind working as an actor down there.

@Amerisketch @1776pax It’s just as interesting exploring all of the back yards and gardens. Everywhere you look is something cool.

@fitzresearch One of my favorites

@Amerisketch Semper Eadem, indeed

Semper Eadem

@welshwitch78 @1776pax A great little place

@Amerisketch @1776pax Colonial Williamsburg?

@ChrispyHargrave It is indeed

@Amerisketch My hometown, it’s a special place

the american west now on SR

@longhunter09 @Amerisketch Family property in Rapahhannock County just on the other side of the Blue Ridge & Valley. Original settlers. Dates back to 1736...

Home. My roots run back to Jamestown, and my paternal line has been in the Valley since before the Revolution. She is the mother of states and statesmen. The history of Virginia is the history of America, and she is unrivaled in natural beauty and her contributions to the nation

@longhunter09 You have to have one of the original valley families if it’s pre-revolution, that’s awesome

@TheyTiltBak No

@Amerisketch Bizzaro Carolina

@VitkoJiggers @Zoomer_South Piedmont is beautiful

@Zoomer_South @Amerisketch Sorry, Piedmont*

@yarnmisery1 Same

@Amerisketch i love the scenery and nature of virginia's mountains

@jph_hokie Great pictures

@Amerisketch The variety of places…beaches, river cities, small towns, mountains, and everything in between. Plus all the seasons
