Fun day at the park

I took my son to Armor House Park in Henrico Country for a county sponsored splash down. We walked around investigating the grounds and I snapped these shots with my phone.

An Overpass

Missed It's Mark

Agecroft Hall

I have not had much time to go out and take pictures lately and I have missed it. Today my wife, son and I went to Agecroft Hall for William Sheakspear’s birthday. I was able to snap off a couple shots while my wife and I followed our son around the gardens and watched him look at everything with such amazement.

    “On the rolling banks of the James River stands a remarkable Tudor estate. And by Tudor, we're not simply referring to an architectural style. This manor house was actually built in Lancashire, England in the late 15th Century.

            For hundreds of years, Agecroft Hall was the distinguished home of England's Langley and Dauntesey families. At the end of the 19th century, however, Agecroft fell into disrepair, and in 1925 it was sold at auction.

            Hearing of this tremendous opportunity, Richmonder Thomas C. Williams, Jr. purchased the structure, and had it dismantled, crated, and shipped across the Atlantic, and then painstakingly reassembled in a Richmond neighborhood known as Windsor Farms.

            Today, Agecroft Hall stands beautifully re-created, in a setting reminiscent of its original site on Lancashire's Irwell River.”

Spring in the city

My boy and me

We took my son out to Maymont park to feeds the animals at the petting zoo and enjoy the nice weather.
My son and I came across this tree while walking around. The textures if the tree interested me and my son.
I am hoping with the nicer weather we get out to more parks and I will be able to take more photos with my new photo assistant.

The Great Winter Storm of ‘14

So it wasn’t so “great” but I did get out of going in to work for two days. Only because I live in Virginia and the thought of snow closes cities down. Below is the end result, not really so scary after all.

Waiting

I started car pooling to work this week. I'm hoping to save some gas money and wear and tear on my car.
I took these pictures while I waited on my ride.
