This made me think of Ashlyn. She loves politics for some reason unbeknownst to me. She is majoring in Political Science at JMU and has just accepted an internship in the General Assembly in Richmond. This is her 2nd internship this school year.

My dad was retired Navy...he bought me a new doll everytime he was over-seas...which was most of my childhood. I had shelves of dolls from all over the world lined up on my bedroom walls...my mom managed to save a few but they are in poor shape...I sure wish I had thought to pack them up when I moved out of the house....

Now it is your turn! Post 5 randoms and link back! Visit others, have fun and thanks for playing! Have a great weekend!!

  4. That's great. As a recovering engineer, I love to learn about national and local history. This looks like a wonderful museum. I hope to visit one day on our trips back to VA.

  7. OK...you have done it. I have issued the ultimatum that we ARE going to make the jaunt across the mountain. I really want to go to this museum. I have been to the memorial, but there is so much to see in the city as you have shared with us. Happy Saturday.
