The Innis House

The Innis House, Sunken Road, Fredericksburg, Virginia, having been restored in 1987 to its 1862 appearance by the National Park Service. The house and the (restored) dry stone wall were used by Confederate sharpshooters in December, 1862, during the Battle of Fredericksburg. Snapped 3/18/2023 on one of my Saturday morning Fredericksburg runs.

Ginko tree (Nov 5th and Nov 19th 2022) at the US National Cemetery, with St George’s church spire in the distance. And again, the third photo, 6:45am June 3rd 2023. This is a site of the Confederate defenses of Fredericksburg, and often a pleasant part of my Saturday morning run.
