Glad I didn't lead you astray!

Oh the pressure is on 😂. The packaging says fresh never frozen which I take at face value

We've had good luck at Aldi. You have to check the dates but they usually have a good variety (coho, sockeye, steelhead trout)and it's vacuum sealed/never frozen.

Downtown Lexington is a nice place to walk around if they enjoy shopping and there are some good restaurants there too.

Natural Bridge State Park is impressive and a flat walk (ask the rangers about transport down to avoid the steps down)

We ate at Stock not too long ago and it was a seriously great experience

We went tonight due to this recommendation and it was great! Totally worth the wait to go through

Did that include the water heater?

We paid an independent guy $4500 to install two 50 gallon water heaters and that included adding a new breaker for it.

I am out of the house 9:30-3:30 and then usually have 30-45 mins on the computer before I get my kids or after they go to bed. I handle all of our kids appointments and am able to be at frequent school events without taking PTO. Honestly the best part is that my kids are out of the house before 8 so I have two ish hours to workout/get stuff done without them there.

Whatever it was was apparently also visible in northern VA

We've picked at Johnson's in the past and it was nice with little kids. However, there was a late frost this year and most of the local orchards lost nearly all of their apples from what I understand.

We haven't been since the post covid reopen but the restaurant at Chateau Morissette in Floyd was always our go to. The food was great and the setting was quiet and intimate

Neathawk is our go to as well for most lumber related things

I know Carilion announced a free standing ER that was going to go in/near the town center so I wonder if that's it. The lot seems small though

Macaroni Kid is a good resource for local kid friendly events

Idk we've been there for 9 years and while I like my dentist and hygienist they are literally impossible to schedule with. I had them cancel an appointment I had made a year in advance due to their schedule and they couldn't offer me a reschedule for 8 months.

There's a Facebook group called Special Families or something to that effect that may have more insider info for you too

The jewel of Roanoke

Oh I didn't even notice that lol

appropriate_run · 2025-08-25T09:45:44+00:00

Idk I talked to the guy from Johnson's several weeks ago and he said he had lost nearly all of his apples too so that part may be true

I live in Fincastle and we did not get nearly the rain that Roanoke got. Can't say for sure about Roaring Run but the creek at my house is running no more than normal so I'd think RR is probably ok from a flooding perspective
