Historic Virginia Garden Week

If you are looking for a road trip in a few weeks, consider making the trek to Virginia for Garden Week.  Held every year in April, the Garden Clubs around the state open some of the most treasured houses and gardens for public view.  Get a rare glimpse into these extraordinary and in many cases, historic, venues.

In the northern part of the state, you can tour Middleburg..........

There will be four properties open and the National Sporting Library and Museum on Sunday and Monday, the 22nd and 23rd.

You can tour Lynchburg on the 24th.

Hit Richmond on the 27th:

I'm planning to visit Charlottesville on April 22nd:

There is a fantastic web site that you can use to plan your tour.  Tickets can be bought in advance or at the venues.  Pack your bags!
