Monday field trip

Here's where I'm spending much of my day today...


Yes, it's a more traditional look than what typically shows up on this blog, but it's for a good cause! I'm volunteering today at the 2010 Richmond Symphony Orchestra League's Designer House. This biennial event is the largest fund raiser for the league. This year, "Rothesay" is the featured house. The home of George and Anne Anderson, it is a large Tudor sited on eight acres overlooking the James River. Both the house and garden have been transformed by notable designers from across the country. The tours have been running since mid-September and will continue through October 11.

As a volunteer, I'll be assigned to one room to share information, manage visitor traffic flow, etc. Not sure I'll have a whole lot to do on a rainy Monday, but it'll be interesting to be involved nonetheless. I'm told I'll also get a chance to tour the house myself afterward. No photos are allowed, though, so I'm afraid I can't share any images here. But I'm sure I'll still have some interesting things to report back...
