April 2nd - Day 2 of Confederate History and Heritage Month. Remembering the majesty that was the Lee Monument in Richmond, Virginia. General Lee still sits high atop Traveller untouched but his pedestal is ridden with graffiti and fences surround what was once a peace piece of land to lounge and admire. This is my last picture from 2019. He remains there while the battle continues in court while his two Generals, Naval Commander and President are gone, pedestals all that remain.
