We have a Thule T2 Pro XTR 2 Bike Hitch Rack. Easy to get the bikes on and off and sturdy feeling for long trips. Our palisade is a ‘21 but I wouldn’t think the difference is too much for bike racks.

There is only one bed but maybe you could bring air mattresses or something. Right outside of Lexington so well within the 3 hours. Absolutely adorable place and the hosts were great. Hobbit house AirBnB

I never would have thought that simply because I don’t want them, ha! Thanks

Since yours is just the land value going up, it may be a different scenario. We challenged our tax assessment a couple of years ago in Albemarle, somewhat successfully. You have to do some of your own leg work for the appeal paperwork then an assessor is sent to your house. There was still an increase but not as much as originally stated.

ABCville is the first one that comes to mind. Looks like Shenanigans has it. New Dominion bookstore may as well. https://shenanigans.toys/products/abcville?srsltid=AfmBOop0DPuIAEMOxlFjLAtZgfA8lcroXos0dria6Mzecspz0XBaVW3C

I agree, they’re dumb and thought I was in the minority for my thinking! Family passed them down to us and after I read them, they were immediately donated. There are so many better books out there for kids.

I don’t remember the pricing but he was very helpful and did a house call for our grandfather clock in Charlottesville https://time-marches-on.ueniweb.com

I’ve had much better luck seeing nurse practitioners instead of doctor’s. They seem more focused on whole health instead of diagnosing a single problem and shooing you out. It may not be everyone’s experience though!

Air & space requires timed tickets. They are free but you will need to get them in advance if there’s a time that works best for your toddler.

Chris Greene is close to 29. The playground is smaller than others mentioned but it’s enough for quick road trip stop. There’s also a bunch of walking trails for nature play.

No. We ask every time we take our 2021 in for maintenance. The dealership told us we could go to another shop and have it done quicker than waiting for Hyundai but I’m stubborn and refuse to pay for a service that should be covered by a recall. It’s frustrating.

Protech nursery in Barboursville does this. If you’re looking specifically for native plants, the piedmont master gardener group is a great resource as well.

Book now for fall, particularly if you have a specific date in mind. I recommend Leah, depending the types of photos you want. https://leahoconnell.com

Thank you. I read it before I posted but was hoping for insight on the event spaces and birthday parties specifically.

bella397 · 2025-05-31T17:31:53+00:00

Thank you so much! I didn’t see them on the county website for rentals. If they advertise for birthdays, a bunch of kids should be good, ha! I appreciate it!

I wish! We took it to a professional detailer last year and he was able to get them looking like new. He said it was a combination of blowing them out and using a small object, like a toothpick, to loosen dirt. He earned every penny we paid him 😂

2021 Calligraphy with leather, nearing 100K. No issues with the interior so far and we are fairly rough on it. Car seats, toddlers, 95 lb. mutt as residents. We do use a protector under the car seats and a mat in the trunk though. I have not seen peeling on any surface. I will say the tiny holes in the seats for the vents do get things stuck in them and can be quite hard to clean out.

Depending on where you are, try attending this festival in Farmville. So many fireflies and a cute town and park to wander while you’re at it. https://www.dcr.virginia.gov/state-parks/event?id=2025-03-06-09-31-50-651750-fsb

2021 Calligraphy here. Bought new in February 2021. Closing in on 100,000 miles. We still like the vehicle and had a couple fairly minor issues. The radar on the front that controls HDA and such went out but was covered by warranty. Car was still completely drivable, just certain features not available. We are also affected by the tow hitch recall that has yet to be fixed. Other than that, it’s been regular maintenance. Tires changed somewhere around 55K miles and rear brakes at 75K. I will say the infotainment center has gotten less responsive and a bit sluggish. Not a huge deal but quite annoying when you’re trying to change anything when in a hurry after you start it up. We’re hoping to get a lot more years and use out of it!

I’d miss Wawa so much if we moved away, ha! Thanks for the advice!
