I sure wish I could have made it up there. We were supposed to have Devon's T-Ball game.... showed up at the field at 8:30 and what do you know cancelled game All the rain Friday night rained out the field. Should have just planned on heading up to Richmond.

Ed: I didn't take a single photo, spent all my time lookin' for critters.

Brian: Friday night was the worst weather I'd ever endured while camping. We were on a peninsula out on the James River. The rain, high winds and hail from the storm were strong and lasted most of the night. Luckily the river didn't reach our camp site. Had there been a hotel near by, I would of abandoned the camp. Unfortunately, the storms were on the leading edge of a cold front which limited our success on Saturday and Sunday.
