Recently, my husband and I visited the Botetourt County Historical Museum to see the Virginia 250th celebration project that they were hosting.
My husband found it somewhat disappointing, as it was mostly placards that gave history lessons. He was hoping to see some Jamestown pottery or something.
But I always find museums fascinating, regardless. Virginia's contribution to the founding of the United States of America is irrefutable and relevant. Mother of Presidents, and all that.
Here are photos of what we saw:

I had a relative who built long rifles. I don't know if that
is one of his. |
 |
| Botetourt passed resolutions before any other community (I think). |
 |
Just a parting shot, someone you know wrote that
magazine there. |
