Let's see... Richmond is a pretty mellow town. The people are kind and generous and don't really care if you're houseless. One woman at Country Club Vista gave us a new water jug. Spanging is decent in the shopping center with the Arco, on Richmond Pkwy and Atlas. On Saturday, we made about $30 in an hour. Sunday was a bit slower, but we did get enough to get me a new pakpak just like Loki's except black and red ♥ Most excellent.
Not a lot of other houseless people, but the ones we have encountered have greeted us in a friendly manner and one gave me some money for food. There's a Walmart within walking distance of the Arco shopping center. Unfortunately, most people in this shopping center and in this city in general happen to live here, so getting a ride out is not really a possibility. We're thinking of using the Amtrak or combined bus and cab services to get elsewhere from here.
Here are some pictures of our time in Richmond so far:
This is a picture I sent Makayla to prove that I was where I said I was. The next three are pictures of the surrounding area, which I also sent her.
Those were all taken at the Richmond Marina Bay.
This was the first picture I took of the Bay Trail, which I frequently compared to Google Maps to make sure we were going the right direction.
Loki let me ride in the shopping cart when my legs got too tired. I didn't know it then, but I was suffering from heat exhaustion from the previous day. I took a few candids of him.
End of the Bay Trail, bit of a disappointment as we got stuck in the middle of nowhere and no-one would pick us up.
Beautiful view of the coast. I took these pictures as we were walking along the highway.
I saw a memorial with a pretty angel.
Took out my travel braids because I thought that having hair similar to Loki's was part of what was preventing us from getting a ride. I look exhausted, but much more innocent in these pictures.
This graffiti is from when I was in the shopping cart.
This is my new pakpak and I love it ♥
