Are you seeing more haunts and spooks going around now that we're in the month of Halloween? Memories of trick-or-treat nights come back to play, but now that you're an adult you can't do things like that. What if you still like to celebrate the ghouls and ghosts of Halloween? Come and experience the James River Plantation Progressive Ghost Tour in Williamsburg, Virginia.
Listen to the tale-telling of the Legend of Rippons Run, visit the Harwood Graveyard and the Southall slave graves where you'll hear about the Beechwood Tragedy. Plan a private group for this event or just take some friends or a loved one. It'll definitely be a ghostly entertaining night!

Have you ever experienced the Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia? If you haven't, I highly recommend it. When I visited several years ago, the feeling you get there is just unexplainable. It's a sense of bravery and courage that you feel when walking among all these burial grounds for fallen military soldiers. These fallen soldiers date back to the Revolutionary War all the way up to the current conflict in the Middle East.
The Tomb of the Unknown is an experience to add when visiting the Arlington National Cemetery. These remains of unknown American soldiers were all presented with Medals of Honor at the time of interment. The Tomb is guarded 24-hours a day and 365-days a year by specially trained members of the 3rd United States Infantry. It is an overwhelming yet honorable and peaceful to witness this tradition.
Imagine strolling along the sand along Virginia Beach with a view of the horizon and hearing the sound of the waves hitting up against the rocks. Up above is a beautiful azure-blue sky with the sun shining brightly, and you look to your side as you are about to take vows with the one you love. Sound like a dream wedding to you?
Virginia Beach has some breathtaking locations for that romantic wedding of your dreams. From Chesapeake Bay to Sandbridge, and the North End is a beautiful secluded beach that includes First Landing State Park; you can have that fantasy wedding that so many others covet.
No need to hop on a plane and fly somewhere else for a honeymoon as you can just kick back and relax after that big day and bury your feet in the soft sand while soaking in the warmth of the sun.
