    A quick stop to drop off postcards. Yes, the post office is closed at 7:30 PM but there's a big…read moreparking area with a lane next to the mailbox so I was able to send off the cards that I bought at the D-Day Memorial https://www.yelp.com/biz/national-d-day-memorial-bedford?hrid=5V0Z0Mg1K4zKOebei1aCrw yesterday. From the outside, the post office is clean and tidy with no litter in the parking lot. [Review 15083 overall, 585 of 2021, number 1299 in Virginia.]

    I'm not sure of the employees name, but I suspect it may be the same employee mentioned in one of…read morethe other reviews--an older lady, with an atmosphere of attitude. She also rejected my package, advising me it was "media mail" and was inappropriately labeled. Confused (I was mailing the package for my husband and didn't label it myself), and busy for the rest of the day, I had to hire a baby sitter the next day and went to the Odd Fellows location where they very nicely asked how they could help me. They examined the package, said it was clearly not marked media mail, then said there was nothing wrong with it at all and was ready to ship. So, my package was a day late, and I wasted 2 hours of my time on a busy work day. Just a heads up, I have also heard terrible things about the Rivermont location if you want to ship more than one package every year. Just laziness and incompetence. I would skip any location but Odd Fellows if I were you.

    I read Bruce Catton's "A Stillness at Appomatox " whilst a sophomore in highr school in the early…read more1970's and have been a student of American History ever since, yet had never visited the Appomatox Court House National Park. I had been visiting in Virginia for a long weekend and decided to " swing by". It was a magnificent autumn day, and the crowds were manageable, unlike Gettysburg which is where I reside. The Park Rangers were helpful as were the volunteer docents, and a living historian did a great job of describing the events which had transpired there in April 1865. Much of the tour was self-guided, and some knowledge of history would be helpful to those unfamiliar. With it. There is an app which I'd downloaded which was useful, however my listening to the aforementioned ( I love that word!) book whilst driving g was even better. There are several clean restrooms on the site as well as a small gift shop. There was no food in the Park as far as I could tell. The McLean House where the surrender occurred was taken apart with the idea of reassembling it in DC or other places afterwards, but that never transpired as funding dried up, thus the building parts sat in the elements for many years and acted like a "free Home Depot" until it was put back together aagain, I believe in the 1940's. About one-sixth of the original brbricks remained, however the historic structure was rebuilt on the original foundation utilizing blueprints whish were somehow available . I'm a history lover, thus really enjoyed it. I feel it's important for all Americans to know where we came from, how we became such a great Nation, and how easily we can fall apart. Culture and heritage ought never be cancelled. Go check it out as I did!
