Richmond

December 2, 2011

We decided to drive back to Richmond.  It is a 45 minute drive from our apartment.  The country here is really so beautiful.  Rolling hills, lots of farmland.  I love the winter look of the land, I can only imagine how lovely it will be in the spring.

Monument To The Three Witnesses

Also, Oliver's burial site
