Up early, went to church. Heard a good sermon. Changed clothing, drove down to Colonial Williamsburg. We have a guest in the house who hasn't been East of Idaho in his life, so we're giving him a tour. Spent the day walking around, taking tours. Today will be downtown Richmond, museums, etc.
Kinda nice being unplugged for a bit.
Where I used to roam as a dumb kid was turned into some damned recreation of VA by Lex Wexner back in the day.
ReplyDeleteUsed to hunt and fish there, and now they put in a damned polo field.
New Albany, Ohio. Now being integrated with Somalis.
Been to the real thing. And I thought that damned place was haunted. I guess the body bags have not changed much.
Why recreate Virginia when you can just go there? Ohio isn't so far away.
ReplyDeleteAnd I hardly recognize my hometown anymore. When we first moved to CdA, lo these many years ago, there was one, as in a singular, solo, no other but this one stoplight on Highway 95. Now you can't go ten feet without another stoplight, and another shopping area, and more houses, etc etc etc.
