On Sunday afternoon this week I dropped off my son for a week of Architecture fun at Virginia Tech. We parked and walked all over the campus before his check in. I had gone to VT for a year and I shared SOME stories with him. It was a beautiful day for walking around too.
We got him checked into his dorm. I made him make his bed and put up his clothes and stuff. He knew how to get in and out of the dorm, use the dining facilities and stuff already. I'm very proud of him. He is definitely maturing and definitely getting better at taking care of himself.
He was supposed to call me Sunday after his orientation and then again around 8pm so that I would know he was ok and had everything he needed for the week. He said "Dad, even if I don't, you are 5 hours away." I told him that I have amazing powers of Internet. He didn't call that night until midnight and since the phones purposefully all sit where we can't hear them, I didn't get the call. He did text me though and said "Dad, sorry I didn't call. I just got caught up. There are so many interesting people here."
Here are some pictures from the campus....
