Richmond, cultural?

There is a new girl at work here and she posed the question "What is there to do in this town that is cultural at all?"

Good question.

I suggested the art museums and science museums. Possibly first night gallery tour. She stuck her snooty (ex-bostonian) nose in the air and declared that they were all disappointing and small. She was upset with our public transporation, to which I replied, "Jump on the bandwagon!"

"Your shopping is horrible here. Why are all the malls outdoor?"
"I guess I should just lower my expectations"


Oh, well...you could do that, or perhaps just move to DC and leave us alone?
