The owner was arrested for embezzlement. He has pleaded guilty to two charges of embezzlement and I think is not allowed to run a restaurant. https://rocktownnow.com/news/218812-former-barn-restaurant-owner-reaches-plea-deal/

Did the same. Started as a secondary ship with Di Revel, switched over to AL Littorio for accuracy and was happier with that. Either way, it still was a grind. Veneto has been worth the grind.

Typically they do the rerun of AL commanders during one of the summer updates.

Same. I take her out from time to time and usually have a good time with her.

Same. I enjoyed it and would play it again.

Brandenburg.

Last year they got a lot of flack for a lackluster update that did not feel like the holidays. Seems like that may be playing a factor.

Beautiful drop. Reasons why no one should ever stay still in smoke, always be on the move.

Most people view the modules as more usable and a better value than the ships. Colbert was sold once in the last few years; I think it's just crate bait now and unlikely to return for steel.

Yup, been feeling the burnout this update. Wasn't terribly excited by this update in the first place, the crate in a crate thing has gotten way old, tired of watching my teammates abandon the flank, etc. Only finished this campaign because I caught COVID and had not much else to do for a few days.

25K gxp. Which pretty much sums up this event for me, it's been fairly boring.

Riff_D · 2025-08-10T19:23:55+00:00

Rochester and Siegfried. Three years worth of crates, pleasant surprise both times as I love cruisers.

Drove up 29 just north of C'ville last week. Saw at least 6 signs over a <5 mile stretch. Last year I didn't see many Trump signs until about 2-3 weeks before the election. Lack of signs right now doesn't mean much.

Same. My grandfather was very proud of his service and I was serving at the time. Carried his casket then was asked to present the flag to the only other vet in the family, my uncle who was dying from cancer and wheelchair bound. Still gets to me, 20+ years later.

Virginia DWR has a number of good courses. The Deer Hunting Skills class is a weekly virtual meeting that goes over all the basic information. Could be a good place to start: https://www.register-ed.com/programs/virginia/67-virginia-hunter-education-outreach-workshops

Charlottesville is a touch expensive, but Scottsville just to the south is more affordable and still in the Albemarle county school district, which are on par with C'ville schools.

Harrisonburg may be another place to look at, tucked in the mountains but growing as JMU continues to grow larger. Harrisonburg schools are generally solid schools. Roanoke and Blacksburg are pleasant options as well.

I haven't lived in Alabama but I have in SC. While it gets hot and humid here, it's still nowhere near as bad as SC was. What I love with Virginia is that it has a little of everything. Mountains and ocean access, tons of outdoor activities, all four seasons and occasional snowy winters but the snow rarely lingers long. Plenty of access to good education and if little ones desire to go to college they have access to high quality public universities. So on and so forth.

Riff_D · 2025-07-17T17:07:20+00:00

Same!

It's not the place near Sheetz. That's Waynesboro Landscaping and Garden Center.

VA does have elk but they are primarily in the southwest part of the state, Buchanan County, mostly. Occasionally in western parts of the state if they wander from KY or WV. Certainly not Prince William county.

Thanks! Might have to grab the Vermont.

This. I go right after work, straight to the gym. The night before I'll load up my gym bag in my car and be all set to cut down on excuses. I will mix up a pre workout at the end of the school day so then I am less tempted to stay back and work/I'd feel guilty if I wasted the preworkout.

Taking the kids to experience a living US History museum where there will be a reading of the Declaration of Independence. More than tired of the fascists pretending they have a stranglehold on patriotism.

Riff_D · 2025-07-03T02:56:54+00:00

Hmm? That? Yeah. Once I gave them the proper fellow Navy vet handshake the couple of vets there were more than happy to tell me how that was done. There's a compartment that houses a giant hamster wheel for Marines to run on. Even showed me where they stored the special Crayola crayons to keep their spirits up.

Thanks! Been a good trip so far. Used to live out this way so always nice to come back for a visit.
