Fredricksburg - July 13

July 13 we stuck closer to where we were staying. We went to the famous ice cream place Michael loves. Then headed over to see the rock Mary Washington (George's mother) used to pray for him on. It's called meditation rock.

I wondered if it had split apart in her day or ours? Or somewhere in between?

We had fun discovering it from both the top and the bottom.

Then we went to the museum and the civil war cemetery where over 15,000 soldiers are buried and they know the names of less than 3,000. Did you know there were four battles fought in and around Fredricksburg? It was food for my imagination.

My sweet girl found beauty everywhere we went.

In the afternoon we went to friend's house to swim, rest, and relax. I had been dealing with poison ivy and didn't swim, Bridger slept, and we all had fun.

The next day we went to church, ate dinner, and headed home. It was a fun vacation.
