We arrived in Richmond very early this morning--2 a.m. It was a heck of a drive, but we made it! It's a bit odd to have traveled so far yet still be in the South. I hadn't really thought of Richmond as a Southern city before we started looking to move here. The campus itself reminds me of the Univ of Arizona, while the surrounding downtown area has that DC feel. The drive down to campus felt like Tucson as well. Even the main drag was reminiscent of Spokane.

The kids were quite enthusiastic about the downtown/campus area. We started to explore but it began raining so we hung out on the steps of a cathedral while we waited for the weather to clear up. I think we have a house in mind, but we'll have to see how the application process goes.

I'm utterly exhausted. In a very good way.

One of the last things we did before leaving town on Monday was take one last load of donations to the Waterfront Rescue Mission. This is how they thank you--by having this creepy guy who scares the crap out of you when you open the door!
