The Central Virginia Battlefields Trust has acquired the nearly 74 acres that constitute the core of the action, including the Myer house ruins, and instrumental ground surrounding. Click their link here to learn more and to make a donation toward the purchase.
The following two, short videos were made essentially in real-time as the height of the morning assault by two small regiments of Ayres' Brigade would have been wrapping things up. Rain fell this morning, just as it did then, making for an authentic experience, but a shortened one from what I had originally planned to do. Nevertheless, I enjoy doing these "as it happened" presentations, and I hope you'll find some value in them.

Hi John. Good to see your videos on Myer's Hill and I always enjoy the excellent content on this blog. I'll never forget the time you took me to Myer's Hill for the first time back in 2002. Long time ago. Regards, Todd
And you have helped immensely. I understand the land has been saved by you and other caring individuals. Thank you John.
