Our road trip took a detour as we visited historic Lexington, Virginia home of Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee. After his defeat and surrender Lee, who was from Richmond, Virginia became the President of Washington College in Lexington. Later the College was renamed in his honor as Washington & Lee and is now a small, high quality university. Here is his home, which remains the President in locus home at the university. Lee's body along with his wife, other family members and his famous horse are all entered under the chapel (or in the case of his horse) outside the chapel.
