Adventures and Posts

In June of 2025, we drove to Richmond, Virginia, as part of our vacation, and one of the stops on our itinerary was the White House of the Confederacy. This location stood out to us not only because of its major role in Civil War history but also due to the numerous paranormal stories and reports we had come across during our research. With our long history of visiting historic and haunted locations, this stop felt like a natural addition to our trip.

In July of 2017, we took a trip down through Virginia, making several meaningful stops along the way, and one of the most important was our visit to Appomattox Court House. This small village holds an outsized place in American history as the location where the American Civil War effectively reached an end. Entering the grounds was akin to entering a timeless moment, imbued with the profound presence of history.

Since 2009, visiting Gettysburg has become an annual tradition for us, even if we can only manage a few days at a time. Each trip feels like a return to familiar ground, a place that never quite gives up all of its stories.

In June of 2025 we traveled to Frederick, Maryland, and one of the locations on our list for the visit was the National Civil War Medical Museum. The reason for this stop was twofold. First, Marianne loves museums with medical-related artifacts, and this location is one of the most haunted in Frederick.
