a- A must to visit when in the Shenandoah Valley's Rockbridge County and Lexington area!
b- How to get there?...easy...go to the Main Street (Rte. 11) and turn WEST on Rte. 60...you're then headed for the Appalachian Mts. in the near distance! Right outside the town limits, to your left, is the entrance at the woods!
c- This quarry dates back to 19th century. The locals had an epiphany way back to turn the old abandoned quarry into a natural theatre, under the stars. And the scene was left, honest, in its natural state with few additions, like seats. You'll be seatdc "down" below the edges of the rock quarry above, making it naturally COOL during the spring and summer months. The experience is outdoor entertainment at its best!
This summer: "Stonewall Country" (7/1-3 and 9/11)..."Seldom Scene" and more. (Google and see list.)
This native Virginia historian, researcher and photographer has visited the Lime Kilm! Was introduced to Zydeco (original New Orleans Cajun music) that visit...loved it!
d- Both Virginia schools are side by side, with stately old W&L campus buildings, especially the famous chapel where Gen. Robert E. (Edward) Lee is interred. If you like history, this entire area around Lexington is worth the exploratory visit, scenery and the campuses of Washington and Lee U. and Virginia Military Academy. Viewing the cadets up on the grounds is quite an experience, too....
