  • The Robert O. Norris Jr. Bridge carrying Route 3 across the Rappahannock River between Grey's Point and White Stone, Virginia on the way to Grandpa Reinken's house in Irvington from Richmond.
  • Beach and old pier on the White Stone side of the bridge.
  • White Stone Pharmacy, where Renate bought a hair dryer after leaving hers at home in Germany.  Ahh, memories.
  • Whispering Pines motel, where we always stayed while visiting Grandpa.
  • The main entrnace to Whispering Pines.  Everything is pretty much the same with just new facades put on the buildings.
  • The wing of Whispering Pines motel where we always stayed.  They've filled the wrought iron pillars with concrete to strengthen them from our car bumping them (because they were too stupid to put in tire blocks).

  • Looking at the house from the backyard - must have been fun to mow!
  • The extension used to be a den/dining room but is now the kitching and dining room.  The old kitchen was turned into a laundry room.
  • View of the house from The Lane.  There used to be a tall Magnolia in the circle created by the driveway, but that came down a couple of years ago.
  • One of the graves.  Graves of a family who died during a cholera outbreak in 1866, just after the Civil War on the lot next to Grandpa's house (which use to be part of the lot and was split off).
