Sunrise Sunset - Marriage in Lynchburg, Virginia
Lynchburg, Virginia. The place of marriage for my oldest son. The first time all four of my children have gathered together in years. I was expecting Lynchburg to be a backwater, but was pleasantly surprised with what I experienced. The little turn-of-the-century downtown with classic front porches set in the hills above the James River exuded historic Americana. But Lynchburg also has two of the most authentic Indian restaurants I've experienced outside India itself and a great jazzy pub. Not bad for a dry county. You can ride the railroad to Lynchburg from Washington D.C. and I recommend you do especially in the fall. For me a week of preparation with my son including yoga on the river and getting acquainted with the new family made this a very special time. As the ceremony progressed the scene from "Fiddler on the Roof" where they sang " Sunrise Sunset " came to mind. Take a listen.
