courthouse

I was at the Greensville County Courthouse in Emporia, Virginia, today.^[1] Greensville County was formed in 1781, two hundred years before my birth. The the current courthouse was built in 1787.

I really wish I had had my camera with me. I really need to start bringing it when I go on trips like that. I was sitting there in front of the courthouse, I looked up at the columns and the letters and I knew I would have had a good picture. I have missed out on some good pictures in Durham, NC, also.

So my midyear's resolution is to start taking more pictures. I have always wanted to be more of a photographer (like my dad), but I feel intimidated by the camera. Does that make any sense? No. I'm sure. I've had a few photos from the lake around here. But since then, I haven't done too much. Oh, and as a non sequitur, I plan to learn how to play the guitar this summer.

^[1]It wasn't my ticket, I was there for.
