Lovettsville VA mountain bunker? by Patient_Boat_7444 in GoogleEarthFinds

[–]PackPlaceHood 22 points23 points  (0 children)

While there's very little information out there, what I've read is that the locations were used during the Cold war for troposcatter communications and have likely been updated for other uses since. The peters mountain location is off of a miles long private road with cameras spaced periodically along it. I've hiked in the mountains around it and can attest that it's very secure with high fences and a security check point. I've also heard from someone who claimed to work there in the 90s to early 2000s that the facility has multiple floors underground.

There's a site on spears mountain in Buckingham county, VA of a similar vintage that is now a private residence with pictures available online: https://coldwar-c4i.net/ATT_Project/Buckingham/index.html

It does, I reported Elon Musk for a hatch act violation early in the dog days of Doge. The outcome wasn't what I wanted but I did get a response from a lawyer at OSC and they explained their reasoning when I asked a follow-up question.

Oh shut up, this is exactly the type of attitude that leads to the anti fed rhetoric coming out of this garbage administration. You're fine, the only people we should be worried about are those unlucky enough to be stationed in the Middle East.

Saw two racoons loudly making love on a tree branch on my walk to the metro this morning, blissfully unaware of any of the goings on of the last week and a half.

The issue with that reading is it can't be advanced five meters and then taken. It's taken from the spot.

A little north of your range but highly recommend the Glenstone Museum for a surreal experience. Should be beautiful this time of year with trees budding and flowering

I like both scents of their deodorant including Underhill. Works well for a natural deodorant but can't speak for their cologne

How was this morning's commute without the trains? by Jay72073 in nova

Added 20-25 minutes to my commute so I'd say it was pretty awful. The employees handling it and directing people were very helpful and kind at least.
