Back in Northern Virginia
Back in Northern Virgnia to visit with the family,
I've already played Teddy on the Game Cube, within twenty minutes of arriving in fact. I'm sitting at Daniels apartment watching the Orioles play on television. Hilleary moving into the apartment has resulted in a much cleaner home life for Daniel.
We had a nice lunch with Steve before we left Richmond at Millies "Lost Dog" diner. Apparantly the gentrification of the Canal district in Richmond has been very successful. They are finishing up a new grocery store to encourage more development in the area. Amtrak apparentlly is talking about running an Acela train from Richmond to Union Station in Washington DC. Since the train only takes an hour to get from Richmond to DC the idea is people will buy condominiums in Richmond and work in DC. It'll be interesting to see if that works.
Apparantly it's been very dry out here this summer. Everyone is talking about the high temperature and Steve said Richmond is going to start Water rationining next week if they don't get any rain.
