Lucky Hit is one of the oldest brick houses in southwestern Clarke County, Virginia. The double-pile, central hallway house was built by Colonel Richard Kidder Meade around 1791, and was named by Meade in his belief that he had made a fortunate choice in his property. The property stayed in the Meade family until 1869.
Famous quotes containing the words lucky and/or hit:

And, O my son, be, on the one hand, good,
And do not, on the other hand, be bad;
For that is very much the safest plan.”

“Getting hit really isn’t that bad. The worst part is getting beat.”
