Roy and I got up early and drove the rental car out to the angle for one last look... then it was "ON TO RICHMOND!"
|
Much of Richmond, Virginia is very new...
|
...but there is plenty to see that is historical. This is Cary St. in the Shockoe district. Many of these buildings were once tobacco warehouses.

Here's Roy, living it up in our SUITE in the Commonwealth Park Suites Hotel. Now this is what I call a decent dormitory!
|
Once we are settled in the hotel, we are off again for a tour of the Richmond National Military Park Visitors Center in the Tredegar Iron Works. Tredagar was used during the war to make cannon.
