#016 - Richmond, VA with Cara Armstrong

Today was a fun one. Got a chance to talk to a friend from grad school and learn all about Richmond, VA. Cara (@_caranewman) talks to us about some great places to grab a beer, get something to eat, and see the perfect Richmond sunset from a rooftop. Thanks to Cara for coming on and I can't wait to get back out to VA and visit!
