Weekend in Virginia

I just got back from a wonderful weekend in Virginia.  I spent all day Saturday judging their print competition, then put on a 3 hour program for the members that night.  It was a very long day.  Everyone there was so friendly and welcoming.  I’m trying desperately to find some pics from Saturday to post – but nothing so far. 

 I was hoping to update my blog while I was there, but free time and internet access kept eluding me.  Even worse, I was stuck inside all day and when I did have a few minutes of free time, it was raining outside. 

After a four hour layover in Philly, thanks to mechanical issues – I reached the hotel at 11:30 Friday night.  Since it was so dark out and I was exhausted from travelling all day – I didn’t notice any of my surroundings.  When I got up the next morning and looked out my window, this is what I saw:

All I had with me was Heather’s point-and-shoot… and photographing through a hotel window is tough – however, I did manage to take this one image, which was fun:

Luckily, the travel home when MUCH more smoothly . I had very minimal delays and ended up sitting next to one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met on the airplane.  It was a fantastic weekend – but I’m glad to be home anyways.
