The bus rolled in to Richmond yesterday and here’s what we’ve got to share:

Thanks again Richmond

Here’s a sneak peek at what went on inside the bus as we traveled from DC to Richmond.

See what happened when the Get On The Bus Tour met the IT Grand Prix in Washington DC this past weekend.

For those of you following us on tour, you’ll notice we had two back-to-back events in Washington DC in the lead up to the Memorial Day weekend. What did we do over the weekend you’re wondering? Well, one of our tour members Brad is from the Baltimore area so he graciously took us on a guided tour of where he grew up.  Here are some of the highlights we got to see that we’d like to share with you!
