Okay, so I'm sorta breaking the rules....I don't live in VA now, however I was born in Quantico and lived in NoVa until 1997! VA is where my heart is, so I just had to join.

What a great idea Jen, to have a VA Bloggers Group.
I'm in the boonies between Roanoke and Lynchburg.

I actually drove somewhat near your house last week on my way back from Roanoke to C'ville. I normally go via 81 but opted for 460 to 29. Much nicer.

If you traveled 460, you passed by Momo and Pop's house (my parents). They live 1/4 mile outside the Bedford City Limits, just before the bypass.
I'm off the 122 south exit, like you're going to Moneta.

Ahhh, I know both locations then.

I love that drive. So much nicer than 81! My mother and stepfather just moved out of Roanoke and are just off 460 around Cloverdale, so it's actually quicker for us to take 29 to 460 to see them. I love the drive through Nelson Co. in particular -- just gorgeous.

When I was a mere child (in my 20s) I worked for the Nelson County Times as an ad rep.
At the time, Tom Byrd owned both that paper and the Amherst New-Era Progress, so I did double-duty.
I remember the fun festivals in Nelson County. Also a neat florist, Claudia's; and a wonderful (although pricey) boutique. Haven't been there for a hundred years...

I'm blogging from Richmond, where I currently live, but I consider Charlottesville home. I went to Hollins, in Roanoke so everyone's location is familiar!

Sarah, I grew up in Roanoke, about five minutes from Hollins!

I'm on the other end of the state....Scott County, past Bristol. In fact, one county over is where Virginia ends! I'm about 2 miles from the Tennessee border.

I went to school at Emory & Henry if anyone knows it, and my inlaws live in Halfax, used to live in Charlotte County and above Ashland.
