My Monthly Business Trips to Richmond

Virginia Crossings Resort

 

This past May, I began a 6-month, 16-day leadership training course offered by my employer. I spend 2-4 days each month at the Virginia Crossings Resort just north of Richmond, Virginia. Since I’m spending so much time down there this year, I thought I’d snap a photo to share.

These are my first business trips, so I’ve finally had a reason to use my corporate credit card. I’ve learned that business travel tends to involve a lot of eating. We’ve gone out for everything from deep dish pizza to steaks. Last Thursday night, when we went bowling in the evening, I scored an all time high of 157.

At last week’s session, we also learned a little more about the full day Challenge Discovery program we would be doing in September. Basically, it’s a series of physical and mental activities we’ll be completing in teams. I’ve always wanted to do a team building exercise of this nature. If it involves helmets, ropes, and liability release forms, you know it’ll be fun!

Dare Me to do something fun, weird, or challenging on the road!
