Is That Tara?

October 15, 2013 by dorannrule

Walking through the historic town of Lexington, Virginia I see so many beautiful homes.

This is one I glimpsed through foliage.

I thought it looked like a miniature modern day version of Tara.

And I dredged up images of Southern gallantry.

And I was transported to the age of elegance

before the winds of war took their toll.

I’ve never been to Lexington, but if there are more homes like that there, I’d love to visit.

You never know when I might take you up on that. How far is Lexington from Virginia Beach?
