Appomattox River Trail - Ettrick/VSU Trail Head
Checked out a new trail system along the Appomattox River in Ettrick, VA. in Chesterfield County (2-2-18). It is a county Parks and Recreation managed property, which will be expanding in the future with more trails and even extending the handicapped accessible trail they already have. It is a nice little area, and I was rewarded with a couple of trains crossing overhead at the railroad trestle.

[4K] WALKING: Downtown Historic Old Towne Petersburg
“A devastating fire on a hot summer night in 1815 wiped out the old towne of Petersburg, a collection of wooden warehouses and homes along the Appomattox River. The brick commercial district that grew from the ashes became a crossroads for batteaux on the canals and trading ships on the river. Major railroads extended north and south from the city.
Old Towne today is a district of antique galleries, boutiques, craft shops, restaurants, cafes, and a mix of renovated residences. Although the oldest part of Petersburg lies along the bank of the Appomatox River, Old Towne Petersburg extends South to Wythe Street. City government offices, the beautiful Courthouse complex, the Petersburg Visitors Center, the Petersburg Area Art League and scores of historic and architecturally significant structures are located in Old Towne Petersburg.”

#LOVEworks #VirginiaRoadTrip #SouthwestVA #FulltimeRVFamily #LoveVA
Today we take you along our LOVEworks road trip in Southwest Virginia! Virginia is for lovers, so they had this awesome idea to get small businesses together and make creative love signs for people to find. You plan out a road trip to see the signs, choosing which area of VA you will explore. The fun part is finding them, taking pictures with them, and then getting to check out the businesses themselves! We didn't find them all, as we only allowed ourselves so much time for this, but we did come across some really cool ones, and explored some new areas of Virginia we had never even heard of! In the video, we share the business and area to find these signs, and you can find so much more by going to virginia.org or searching LOVEworks.
Let us know if you've ever done this! Also, comment which sign was your favorite! If you get stuck and can't find one that we show in the video, we would be happy to help you locate it, so just ask!
