Three hours on the road found us in Charlottesville today to visit the University of Virginia and find Shannon a place to live for August when she starts law school in the fall. With the unpredictable rain, this was the best picture I could get of the best parts of the campus Thomas Jefferson built, leaving him penniless. I always enjoy spending time on other campuses, imagining what it would have been like to go to school here, there, or wherever. Tucked in among the Virginia hills, the University of Virginia is an absolutely stunning campus with perfectly maintained lawns and gorgeous architecture. While we didn't have enough time to explore the entire campus, I was struck by its simple beauty and, despite its age, its contemporary appeal. It's an inspiring campus, explaining the University and its graduates' reputation.
