Staunton Inaugruration

UVA at Obama Inauguration
Ostensibly I was simply transportation for Kelsey to go visit Courtney but it turned in to so much more including the opportunity to view President Obama’s inauguration in the UVA Arena with thousands!

Recently the short trip theme has seen lots of activity. Two hours from home is Charlottesville and only 45 minutes further puts you in Staunton, VA. “So what?” you may ask, “What’s there?” To which I say “A surprising lot!”

Here you have it:  I visited Woodrow Wilson Museum and Birthplace, the P. Buckley Moss MuseumMary Baldwin College, the Lunatic Asylum, historic downtown Staunton, the Frontier Culture Museum, and Sunspots Studios. I’ll tell you, I was not hurting for things to do!

Here area  few pictures from my day …

However, on a personal level it was hard to beat watching the inauguration in UVA’s new Arena with three lovely young ladies … two of whom I love.
