Three snapshots of life in Richmond. The first is of the state capital in Richmond, which was being worked on the whole time we where there. This capital building is home to the oldest legislative body in the United States. Please do not miss the phrase carved into this capital building when it was built in 1788. The second picture is from our favorite spot on the James River, a place called Pony Pasture. Sheri and the kids used to spend afternoons climbing on the rocks; you can just make them out in the distance. The third is a picture of the monument of Stonewall Jackson on the famous Monument Avenue. Monument Avenue is home to many famous and beautiful monuments commemorating Virginia's rich history.
I believe appreciation for a place comes after one leaves and then reflects back on that place. Appreciation, to me, comes after the experience is over. What is left is based on whether that experience is predominately positive or negative after proper reflection. I believe it is safe to say that our experience in Richmond was a wonderful and a positive experience! Enjoy the pictures!
