The Ramily

We have spent today in Richmond at VCU’s orientation for students and family. Chris and I had a few sessions to attend, some that overlapped with Edwin’s. The overall message taken from today: welcome to the ramily (their mascot is the ram)! Other message from the College of Engineering: screwing up can add a year pretty darn quick. But we’re so glad you’re here!!

Chris and I split off around 5:00 for a rooftop cocktail at the hotel we’re staying in that overlooks the College of Engineering, followed by a delicious Italian dinner of branzino and spaghetti with mussels at Edo’s Squid, and a later visit to Triple Crossing Brewery during a thunderstorm. All of this was within walking distance, and we got lucky with the timing of the storm.

We have a few more sessions tomorrow morning before heading home with our boy. We have him for two more months before making the drop for real.
