Daytripping to Blacksburg! A Happy Day :)

Saturday - October 20, 2012

Carpe diem?  Strike while the iron is hot?  Whatever the appropriate adage may be, Joe and I are being opportunistic in terms of my energy and health and taking a Saturday daytrip to Blacksburg to see our magnificent Hokie!  It's been TOO long; our spring visits were derailed by my epic migraines and double vision so we have not been down to see Jonathan on campus in a year.  I cannot wait!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

A whirlwind, wonderful trip to Blacksburg!  Jonathan, our favorite Hokie Ambassador, escorted us on a long walk through campus from the Beta House to the Duck Pond and all around the Drillfield.  After a parents' treat meal at Bull and Bones interspersed with some football viewing back in his room, we had to hit the road again.  It was a fast but fabulous chance to cuddle my sweet boy, check out the new stitches in his head, and share some of his day-to-day.  I just needed to see him on his own turf.  Joe made that possible.  I am a reassured and happy mom.
