View my collections on flickr here: Collections While visiting my flickr contact John H. Bowman and his wife Ruth Ann in Virginia in April, 2012 we took a two day trip to the Shenandoah Valley. Photography was more of a challenge than usual, as we had rainfall for much of the time that we were in the valley. Staunton is one of the main cities of the valley and is situated on a variety of hills. I took this photo from in front of St. Francis of Assisi church.
