Richmond Day 3


Day Five,

We met Nate and Perry for lunch at Bottoms Up Pizza. After lunch we walked along the Hazall and Kanawha canals. We saw the flood walls with gates and the tour boats that go along the canal. We split up after that. Lynelle and Jim took Lora and I to see the Historic Polegreen Church. Dinner at Lynelle's.

Richmond Day 2


Day 4

We took mom and dad to Cold Harbor Battlefield visitor center and walked the loop. After lunch we went to Maymont Park to see the Maymont mansion, buildings, and gardens. That was a must see! From there we walked to the Robins Nature Center to see animals. From there we stopped by Hollywood Cemetery and saw the graves of Jefferson Davis, James Monroe, and John Tyler. We went back to Lynelle's for dinner with mom and dad.

Richmond


Day Three:

We met Jim down in Richmond on the James River. After lunch we left Jim and walked across both bridges. We did half of the trip around Belle Isle enjoying the view and some rock hopping. Got to see some wildlife as well. When we got  back across the river we toured the American Civil War Museum on Tredegar St. Lot's of local history. That evening we met Nate and Perry at Triple Crossing Brewery for dinner. We ended the day back at their house visiting.
