Active Woman Traveler Pick up "100 Things to Do in Richmond Before You Die" and find more to love and learn from in RVA! Stay tuned! It's a tough job!

With so much to do in and around Richmond, Virginia, it can be hard to choose how to spend your time! "100 Things to Do in Richmond Before You Die" (Reedy Press) can help you discover experiences to round out your itinerary - whether you're a local or visitor. My two forthcoming books will add even more to the canon on Richmond and Virginia: one on the history of distilled spirits in Virginia (UVA

Press) and another on secrets of Richmond (Reedy Press). Since my current research keeps me closer to home, I have more time to explore this diverse region and share my experiences with readers.

Better yet, it helps support the health of the James through its partnership with the James River Association, which has helped improve the health of the river from a D- to B. Great work, y’all! Now let’s all work to bring that grade up to an A!
