Today I was invited to contribute to an online auction hosted by a wonderful organization here in Fredericksburg called the National Institute of Family & Life Advocates. Starting on March 1, 2010, NIFLA will be auctioning off a number of fun and unique items to raise money for their efforts. The National Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA) is a charitable 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization which exists to provide life-affirming pregnancy help centers the best legal education, consultation, and training possible.

I have donated signed copies of The Southern Cross and Campfires at the Crossroads and I am also putting together a very special tour: In the Steps of Stonewall: this one-of-a-kind experience will take (up to 4) guests to local sites tracing the last days of Confederate Gen. Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. The 4+ hour tour includes: Chancellorsville Battlefield sites, Jackson's wounding Trail and Monument, Jackson's arm burial-site at Ellwood, Jackson's Ambulance Route, and the Stonewell Jackson Shrine. Additional stops may be added as time permits. Date/time to be determined.
