On January 24 we took a road trip to the Centre Hill Mansion in Petersburg VA. Centre Hill Mansion is known for a visitation of Union soldiers on January 24 at 7:30 pm. They walk in the front door, go up the stairs to a meeting, 20 minutes later they descend the stairs, exit and slam the door on the way out.  Unfortunately, we didn't hear anything and I blame it on the very loud laughter and conversation that was taking place outside the front door. They were just rude! We took the ghost tour which we enjoyed. There's more ghostly activity than just the soldiers walking in and out.

If you're ever in the Richmond, VA area, we recommend taking the 30min drive south to Petersburg and visiting Centre Hill Mansion. If you have seen the PBS series 'Mercy Street' you will recognize the house. It was the setting for the Green family's home.

We did take some video of the ghost tour which is on YouTube

Cocktail: The Southern Baptist-boubon, lime juice, ginger syrup, candied ginger for garnish. Think of it as a hard limeade. It was better than I expected.
