Historic Route

Historic Route...
Like most major roads today, 
they had origins as dirt roads since colonial times. 
From town to town, ever expanding eventually
to hundreds of miles in length,
covering vast distances.
Once taking several days by horse or wagon,
now mere hours by car. 
During the civil war,  armies marched 
these prominent roads barely getting 20 miles/day.

This is one if those roads.


Culpeper, now my home town,
my retirement town, 
where I plan to live out my life.
