Nancy Drew 2011 Convention Clues #22

NANCY DREW VISITS RICHMOND, VA

Before Nancy Drew and her chums get to Charlottesville, VA, they fly into Richmond, VA in The Hidden Window Mystery.

If any of you are taking that route to the Nancy Drew Sleuths convention in Charlottesville, you might follow in Nancy Drew's footsteps. In the book, she and the girls visit the courthouse designed by Thomas Jefferson and also go to St. John's Church (shown above) where Patrick Henry gave his famous "Give me Liberty or Give me Death" speech!

Also Sleuth Amanda pointed out that the hospital where Nancy's cousin Susan Carr was taken, Johnston Willis Hospital, is a real hospital. Click here for directions.

I'm staying over to visit Richmond and see some Civil War sites, including the Confederacy Museum.
