Natural Bridge, Virginia: George Washington's Initials and Light Show
The Father of Our Country tagged Natural Bridge with a hammer and chisel. See the vandalism by day, then be dazzled at night with the "Drama of Creation" light show -- which, due to separation of church and state, can only be shown after business hours.

While traveling south on 81 in Virginia last winter my boyfriend and I came across the Natural Bridge, which is supposedly the highest of its kind and is one of the 'Wonders of the World'. The initials "GW" can be found in the rock, the tour guide and several signs tell you they none other than George Washington's initials that he carved when he discovered the bridge. At night they do a laser show that we didn't go to, but that I'm sure would have been entertaining ;)
