Paul and I are home after a wonderful day in Williamsburg and Richmond with Cheryl -- the former to see
Botticelli and the Search for the Divine at the Muscarelle Museum of Art on the campus of the College of William and Mary (we also saw
The Art and Science of Connoisseurship, an exhibit on authenticating the work of artists, and
Written in Confidence: The Unpublished Letters of James Monroe, correspondence mostly between close friends). Then we had a quick lunch at Noodles and Company and went to Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden, where it was raining when we arrived and for a little while when we were in the Tree House but was mostly gorgeous and not at all crowded because of the weather. Because Olive Garden had a deal the night before that if you bought one entree, you got another to take home, we had pasta waiting for us for dinner at Cheryl's before we drove home. Here are a few pics:
