I would like to go!

I have no idea what the "Yorktown Cannons" are so unless I'm looking for something like this standing on the corner I will need an address.

We will meet at 10am at the outlook to the Colonial Parkway entrance Across from the Yorktown Victory Center. You will see us there and can see it from the road. It is know as the French Trench and has 2 large cannons and a Marble marker nearby.
The Yorktown Victory Center is located at the edge of Yorktown and near Yorktown Battlefield. Use exit 247 from I-64 and follow signs to the Yorktown Victory Center on route 238(Old Williamsburg Road) that then turns into Route 1020, follow the signs about 1 mile to the YVC.

Does Suffolk count as South Side? I will be taking 664 to 64 in NN I think. I don't really know my way around here but that's the way I think I'm going.
