A picture a day of the town of Lexington, Virginia
Beautiful Lexington, Virginia:
A town of 7,000 in the Shenandoah Valley -- home to Washington and Lee University and the Virginia Military Institute; resting place of Civil War generals Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson; and at the center of one of the prettiest counties in Virginia: Rockbridge County.

Another beautiful shot, great perspective on the fence and walkway. And the lighting as well.
Jill, thank you for all your kind comments!
I really enjoy your photos... I was born and raised in Lexington... attended and married in Lexington Pres. Church. You have done a fantastic job of capturing the quiet charm of my hometown. Thank you!!
