emporia
Last week, Jimmy asked me to ride with him to Virginia...so I went. We got to go to Emporia, Lawrenceville, Victoria, and South Boston. I'd never been to any of them, so it was pretty fun. I took this in Emporia, which is quite lovely once you get about a mile away from I-95.
We had lunch in Victoria, which had a great restaurant called the Breadcrumb Cafe. I'm pretty sure that the grilled chicken panini that I had is in my top three "greatest sandwiches of all time." The cafe was in a storefront that started as a pharmacy, then was converted to a Greyhound station. Since I'm pretty sure Greyhound hasn't run through there in 40 years or so, it's now a restaurant. There were also quite a few antique shops around. That's always a plus.
Other than that, nothing much going on. We're in the midst of VBS (just like EVERY other church in the county). We had a great time last night. It hasn't been quite so hot, so that's definitely a blessing! Now if you'll excuse me, I need to go hydrate...

How far away is this place? Maybe it could be on our list of places to go with Hannah...if she ever gets well.
What age group are you teaching/helping with in VBS?
oh, this is Monica B, by the way. I have two friends who have invite only blogs and I was at this e-mail when they invited me...too much trouble to ask them to change it. (How's that for laziness?)
Hey Monica! We have all ages thrown in together. I think they go from 2 to 13 or so. There are 18 total...so it's definitely interesting!
You HAVE to enter that picture somewhere. At the fair maybe or I don't know but it's BEAUTIFUL!!! And yes, VBS is quite interesting..... I wonder if Armando is still screaming for his ice cream.?
I agree. The picture looks professionally done!
