Shall we start off August with a trivia question? Looking through my pictures I see a picture of a Confederate Monument that I haven't used for a trivia question yet. Name the town where this Confederate Monument is located.

Having lived in Lynchburg a few years, the locals claim they have yet to surrender to the North. The troops from Lynchburg heard the night before about Lee's surrender, so they just walked home from Appomatox Courthouse down the road.
Lynchburg, Virginia

Is it just me or does this monument have a semi-Bolshevik air about it?

Yes, Lynchburg! You're all very good and fast. Lynchburg, by the way, is a lovely town. And I used it for a cemetery trivia question last fall:
