Back to Virginia!

As is usually the case now, a few weeks after arriving back home in Sarasota, I again packed up for another destination. This time the destination was familiar, and thus the packing was somewhat easier. I was excited to return back to University of Richmond for my final year; excited to see friends and excited for what the year will bring.

Returning back to campus before other students, we RAs had our first excursion away from campus on the 9th of August. For the Westhampton College RAs, (the women's college at University of Richmond) we went to Maymont, which is an American estate bequeathed in order that it become a park that all can visit.

Despite having studied in Richmond for several years I had never before gone to Maymont. With a plethora of secluded gazebos, and flower trellises, it is not surprising that many people from Richmond choose this spot for photographs of special occasions, or for the special occasions themselves.

We were there to do exactly that, take RA photographs for the coming year. These photographs are displayed throughout campus, so it was quite nice having the ambiance of Maymont.

Here we all are in the true Westhampton spirit! 

I hope that my remaining time at the University of Richmond is full of as much laughter and enjoyment as that afternoon in Maymont. With the support and love of my Family(though they are a far distance away), as well as the Friends who never fail to brighten up my day; I am sure that the coming months will be full of times like these.

Until Next Time!
