Maymont Park


Sally and James Dooley left their 100-acre estate Maymont, to the City of Richmond to be used as a public park and museum. The estate opened to the public in March 1926 and still features a mansion, gardens, and a variety of animals.

Bon Année 2011!

I had a wonderful New Years in Richmond with my friends Laura & Benoit from New Jersey. We explored Belle Isle park, shopped in Carytown, went to a 90s dance party, and had an amazing French brunch at Can Can Brasserie. I'll be spending the first part of 2011 in Pennsylvania for work, so it was good to enjoy Richmond while I can.
