Orange, Virginia

Sarah and I went on a mini-holiday away this weekend, travelling down to Orange in Virginia, about 2 hours south of here. It's a really beautiful, quiet rural area, and the weather was perfect, as I found on my run this morning:



It's near Shenandoah park, and the mountains in the distance are the ones you can drive along on Skyline Drive.

We stayed in a very chill B&B and used it to explore some of the local area. Nearby is James Madison's house, which has exhibits on the constitution and a newly re-done house made to look like it did at the time Madison was president.






Last photo is Sarah in front of a ruined building near a winery. There were many more vineyards in Virginia than I expected!
