This is one of the hanging baskets along Main Street, just down from the new Dan River Art Works gallery. In the background is, I believe, the old Hotel Danville.
Downtown Danville. I had to drive around the block a few times before I found a good spot near Zinc this afternoon after school. It was really weird…Cars everywhere downtown… And — whew! — you can just see the heat of the day. TG4AC!

July 2006. I was very pregnant with Atticus, who was born in September of that year. Ryan, Lucas, and I rode down 86 into North Carolina, past Yanceyville, where Kevin was working in the prison, to Shangri-La. Lucas was almost two years old; Ryan was 13.

We headed to Dan Daniel Memorial Park today to enjoy the southern (and mostly shaded) end of the Riverwalk Trail. What an awesome way to spend the good part of a day!

And by the time it gets to “CHURCH,” it’s a sans-serif block. I wonder if it’s thematic, or if they went with a freeform, whatever-happens approach. And I [...]
And for today, the downside of yesterday’s jaunt through the southcentral Virginia countryside (if we set aside the gas money I must’ve used for it ;). Destruction. Just imagine what this field of ragged tree stumps must have been like in the not-too-distant past. And now: Ugh! I know that there are reasons for deforestation. [...]
Atticus and I went riding for about an hour and a half after church this morning, all across Pittsylvania County, Virginia. Up Mount Cross Road, around and across to Whitmell School Road, and further onto Franklin Turnpike. Up and down and east on Dry Fork Road all around and onto 29. And finally, down Snakepath [...]
