Snow at Guilford Courthouse Battlefield…

Jump to Comments

It snowed here in Greensboro yesterday and with the sun coming out today I thought it was the perfect time to get some pictures.  I walked across the street to the Guilford Courthouse Battlefield and took some snow covered pictures.  Here are just a few of them.  This first one is actually from my patio balcony, I thought the icicles were cool…

This one is right after you cross the street to get onto the battlefield, I couldn’t pass up a chance to get this shot of the snow on the split rail fence…

This next one is of the main monument on the battlefield.  It is of Nathaniel Greene, the American general who commanded at the battle of Guilford Courthouse.  While Greene and his men had to quit the battlefield they bled Cornwallis’ army so much that Cornwallis had to retreat to Wilmington and eventually to Yorktown.

This last one is of the same monument but from a different perspective…

I hope you enjoy them.  It is a rare opportunity to get to photograph something like this in the snow and I enjoyed doing so.
