I am so glad that you have shared this from last year! Thanks for all the information - 5000 casualties so sad and it's interesting to know all these facts - Picnic Battle - wow - I can't believe people turned up to view! Wow! I love the way you talk as we go through with you! The second battle was even worse.. This is a really great video Alicia!
It was really interesting to go there and see where the battles took place. It made it so much more real and sad to think about what had taken place. I love history and I think it is important to not forget! Thanks so much for watching Michelle!💛
wow, yes the carvings are definitely sobering... war is so pointless, I hate that humans use that as a means of "resolving" differences. My dad would really love this, maybe we can visit one day. so glad you pulled this out of the archives for us :) thanks Alicia!
It was definitely sobering to see those carvings and know the story behind them. War is a hard thing for sure and I think it is important to not forget what happened so that we don't repeat things! Going to places like this really makes it real and more personal. Thanks so much for watching, Jessica!
Hey girl! This was so cool. I have been wanting to go to Gettysburg for such a long time. This looks like another interesting spot to visit concerning the Civil War. Loved the last building. They don’t make houses like that anymore. Wonderful share my dear. Have a beautiful day!🥰❤️🌸🌼🌻
We made it up to Gettysburg a couple of years ago and it was a great experience! We had plans to go back this May but that won't be happening now, maybe next year. I love historical anything, especially old buildings so that last house was right up my alley! Have a great day and rest of the week Michelle! 😊💖🌞🥰
This was so interesting, Alicia! I miss living in Virginia❤️ There is just so much history there. You really did your research for this one and I enjoyed learning some new facts about the Civil War.
Hi Amy! Virginia is an awesome state with all the history! I have really gotten into the Civil War since moving here because there are so many places here that had historical significance related to it. Thanks as always for watching and I hope you and your family are doing well!💛
Great video, Alicia! I went to Manassas National Battlefield Park with my family once, but we didn't do anything. I don't think we knew about the visitor center, farm house, hospital, etc. It's definitely very beautiful country around there--Virginia is beautiful, in general. Very beautiful forests, hills, and mountains in the distance. Very interesting that the visitor is only closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas. Seeing the carvings in the wood would definitely have made the hospital a lot more real. Overall, this was a great video. You gave so much info about the battle and the park. I think this might be another good niche for you: reviews of historical sites! Hope all is well, Alicia!
That is neat that you have been there! It's too bad you didn't get the chance to do anything there though, it is a really neat place. And I agree, Virginia is beautiful in general. I love how green it is and of course the forests and mountains. I should have said the park is only closed Thanksgiving and Christmas during "normal times". I'm sure most of it is closed right now like everything else! I was really glad we got to see the carvings, that was the best part. Thanks so much, Parnell. I love doing these types of videos, they really interest me but unfortunately they don't do the best. I do them anyway because I enjoy them so much. Plus I like having them for my own memories! Hope all is well with you too!
@@AliciaLynnYT It definitely is an interesting place. I feel like the beauty of Virginia is more subtle than out West, but definitely still impressive. Even though these videos don't do as well, I think you should still do them once in a while: like you said, even if for your own memory. I know that when I travel, I can have a ton of photos, and sometimes, I think that having a condensed video recap would be nice for a stroll down memory lane. Great work! I am doing well...but a cookie recipe didn't work out...so my unofficial cookie series will be interrupted later today with a backup lol
It was a sobering thing to go here and know what had taken place. It is important to not forget though! Thanks for watching my friend. I am heading over to your channel later today. I saw you had a virtual baby shower video up!!😃
We always enjoy these parks. We have a similar battlefield park in Illinois and we go there for a reenactment. Very nice narration, by the way. The Stone House is so beautiful, both the buildings and the details inside. Can't believe it was a hospital. That's so cool she let you go up. It does sound very sobering. Thank you for sharing, Alicia.
That is cool you guys get to see reeanactments! I want to see that at one of these sites, I think that would be so neat! That Stone House was definitely my favorite part and I was so happy she let us go up to see those carvings. Thanks as always guys! 💛
Great narrating General Jackson is my great great grandmothers 2nd cousin on his mothers side Julia Jackson her mother is Margaret C Winn (Neale) my 4 x great aunt. Margaret brother is my 4 x great grandfather John David Winn who is General Jackson's great uncle.
Very neat that you have that family history!! This was a great place to visit and learn more about the history of the Civil War. Thanks so much for watching!
@@AliciaLynnYT your welcome I love videos like this specially about him. His 2nd cousin Mary E Winn (Walton) lived out in Missouri during this time of the war. On her farm.
Hi Alicia, this was really interesting! I never knew that about the upper room carvings in the Stone House!This is right in our backyard. :) We enjoy the trails whenever we get the chance. Nearby, in the City of Manassas, they have a Museum as well. And occasionally do Civil War reenactments on the lawn. Once things get somewhat normal again, I'd love to do the tour you did. We've never done that and it looks interesting! Glad you got to go down memory lane.❤ So hard to be away from family during times like this.
That's right, I remember you saying you were close to Washington D.C. so this would be really close to you! The carvings were so neat to see. I don't know if they normally have that cordoned off like they did the day we were there but I was glad she let us up there. We didn't get to see the Museum, my brother would love to see Civil War reenactments! He was bummed that he missed them when we went to Gettysburg. It was nice to go down memory lane because I miss my family. It is hard being so far away. Thanks for watching Tina!
I loved this! We want to hear about these places so we can know where to go for educational or fun trip with the kids! I can’t wait to travel again! This park looks so interesting! We lived near Stonecreek Battlefield area in Nashville Tennessee area! It was so neat and similar to this one you are showing!
Thanks Tiffany! I almost didn't upload it because I know most people aren't going to be interested but it was a great place to go. So much history and would be a wonderful educational opportunity for kids! I can't wait to travel again too. I bet there are a lot of neat places where you lived in Nashville too. I want to try and get to as many as I can while I live on this side of the country!

Ah yes, Stonewall Jackson still standing tall and proud.
"There stands Jackson like a stone wall"
It’s great you found this outdoor footage. I know know the vid is about history 😂 but I’m in loving seeing outside .
I was loving seeing the outdoor footage as I was editing and wishing I could be back there again! Thanks for watching, Jacqueline!
AliciaLynn I know what you mean it’s sooo bad that were not able to indulge in the simple things right now
Thank you very much for the great narration and details to plan for the visit.
Cool carvings
It was neat to see them!

Live 20 minutes away. Manassas is wonderful
Hey Alicia ! Thanks for great channel and great video. I want to support each other often. I have subed you and hit the bell. Take care! Be safe!
Thanks and you too!
Interesting about the stone Hospital!
The Carvings are so neat! What young kids to fight in battle! That’s sad that one died! That’s war for you 😭
The stone hospital was really interesting. It was sad to think about such young kids dying!
Wow so much history!! While it’s very sad it has to be very euphoric walking through the park. Thanks for sharing Alicia ❤️
It was a really moving experience to be where these major battles took place and so many lives were lost. Thanks for watching, Susy!💕
It’s crazy all the wars have done. So sad, but an important piece of our past so hopefully more people can learn from these choices.
It was a sobering thing to go here and know what had taken place. It is important to not forget though! Thanks for watching my friend. I am heading over to your channel later today. I saw you had a virtual baby shower video up!!😃
Cool thanks for bringing us along, interesting video, hope your having a great week

this is probably as close as I'll ever get, thank you 👍🏻
Thanks for watching Tracey! 😊💜
Very well done. Recently traveled there and was unable to see Brawner area and the Stone House was closed. I learned much about what I missed.
Thank you, Doug!
Whew..😄😄😄..☕...☕..☕..💪🖒
Great narrating General Jackson is my great great grandmothers 2nd cousin on his mothers side Julia Jackson her mother is Margaret C Winn (Neale) my 4 x great aunt. Margaret brother is my 4 x great grandfather John David Winn who is General Jackson's great uncle.
