RIDE AROUND RICHMOND DURING OUR WEEK OUT!

Sept - One day during our week out of TT Chesapeake Bay, we took a ride around Richmond just for the heck of it.

This is the historic Tredegar Iron Works, dates back to the Civil War.


Some of our cobblestone streets.



One of the locks on the Kanawha Canal off the James River.


The James River.


This is the old Benedictine High School.  Ken graduated from this Catholic military high school years ago.  We were surprised to learn that the school has moved from this location to a new site west of the city.


Sightseeing done, we looked for a place for lunch.  We had discovered a Pho Vietnamese restaurant when we were in LaQuinta, CA (near Palm Springs) and always enjoyed their soups and other dishes.  I had noticed on line that there was a Pho Vietnamese restaurant in our neighborhood, and our GPS was able to find it -- Pho So 1!!



Eye of Round Soup (Pho Tai).  UUMMMM!!  As good as the Pho in LaQuinta!!


Great place!!
