Come to Virginia and Stay a Lifetime!

My real estate showings have been heating up as buyers are finding out what we have known all along – That Virginia is truly for Lovers of so many things.  We have the Seashore, Chesapeake Bay, Eastern Shore, Shenandoah Valley, Mountains, Charming Small Towns, Historic Treasures, World Class Universities, College Towns, Up-beat Cities and Metropolitan areas, Museums galore and some of the best wineries on the East Coast of the United States.  Here in Virginia we have it all.  If you are looking for a place to stay in the Chesapeake Bay Region or Beyond, check out the Select Registry of Inns. http://www.selectregistry.com/index.asp

The Corn Crop has been planted!

As the wife of a farmer who plants, cultivates and harvests small grains and corn, the corn crop is in and is off to a great start.  Soon we will be enjoying summer sweet corn and at the end of August thru September the grand corn harvest.  After the harvest – Dove Season sets in.  Thought this article might give those sportsmen and sportswomen out there something to look forward to.  This is my article from three years ago about Dove Hunting in Virginia.        Dove Hunting in Virginia – After the corn harvest.

Memorial Day Observances and Festivities in Virginia

This memorial day weekend, join me in praying for our nation, that politics could be put aside for the sake of the common good. Let us also never forget those who have answered the call to serve our nation and its people, the Land of the Free and the home of the Brave men and women who have served and paid the ultimate sacrifice – for freedom’s sake.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the Mom’s out there – Wishing you a truly blessed day!

As a wife and a mother, I often find that mom’s put everyone else ahead of themselves.  Rarely does anyone really notice.  This mother’s day make sure your mother knows just how much you have noticed and appreciated all the ways she shows unconditional love and sacrificial giving every day.  What are you grateful for about your Mother?  Do you have a favorite memory?
