Very interesting two weeks in Richmond, VA. Heading home this weekend to rejoin family and friends in North Carolina, will be back Sunday night/Monday morning. As noted in previous posts, toured the Aviation Museum in Richmond, and also took a walking tour of the downtown. Saw quite a bit, and found very interesting what I saw. Had a great time getting around. Impressed that Richmond is a very easy city to explore; a great deal of signs telling you where places are. North Carolina could take a clue from what is done here. Helps to know where things are in the Carolinas, not a lot of signs for directions. I also have been impressed with how friendly everyone is here. They can be in North Carolina, but a lot of people there are from many parts of the United States (its a great deal like Atlanta in that regard).
Today visited the Richmond Music Center, once again a friendly store. Sure they are trying to sell stuff, but shook hands, asked my name, and gave me theirs. By the way if you play, they have a nice selection of instruments. Impressive wall of guitars in the store really grabbed my attention.
Planning to do some more exploring next weekend; looking to see what all this area has to offer.
