know Morratico--it is a tiny town on the Rappahannock River,
maybe 15 miles upriver from the Chesapeake Bay. This is the part
of Virginia commonly known as "Tidewater", explored by Cap't John
Smith and settled by colonists in 1600's. Lots of historical
stuff in 50-100 mile radius, like colonial Jamestown, and
Williamsburg, Yorktown, etc.
