We left at 6:05 which wasn't enough time for getting to Richmond at 9 AM. Libbie needed a rest area break which killed our timing. Got to the Ginter Botanical garden after 9. We stopped into the judges room for breakfast and instructions then went into the Showroom for judging of the show. I had a lot of fun. Carol Vann and Susan Barbi were on my panel which was good since I learned a lot as well. We had lunch in the Cafe where Libbie and I split a turkey and cranberry sandwich and had a cup of pepper and crab soup. Both were very very good. After judging we walked around the arboretum and thoroughly enjoyed the spring flowers and trees. It was a delightful afternoon. We left the arboretum by 3 PM and had no problem on the 3 hour drive home. I managed to round trip it on a single tank of gas in the Corolla. On the way home we stopped into Trader Joes for wine and a side for dinner. Dinner was ribs with baked beans and Trader Joe wine. I downloaded the cameras and put everything on the server. Our pictures came out pretty good.
