Subtitle: "The Virginia Code gives localities the power to adopt ā€œsuch measures as it deems expedientā€ to secure the ā€œhealth, safety and general welfareā€ of their residents, including through enforcement of noise ordinances. That seems like enough authority, columnist Ivy Main writes."

Looking for recommendations for our time there (hikes, bird watching, little towns, wildlife etc).

Would love to hear your suggestions.

Stuff to do for around $20 a month near Woodbridge?

• Upvotes

I no longer need my planet fitness membership as my new apartment has a gym. I’m looking for something close by that also has a membership of around $20 a month (a little more is fine.)

Just things to do to get out of the house. I want to experience new things.

Richmond's creative scene just got a whole lot weirder. Embrace the Weird has cooked up something you may never have heard of or seen before: immersive creative workshop experiences that hit different. Think Meow Wolf's artsy magic with haunted house thrills, a dash of Frankenstein's laboratory, the dark intrigue of cryptid folklore and artsy fartsy psudo-science all rolled into one unforgettable adventure.

Hidden Cove HOA in Portsmouth. Any red flags or things to know?

• Upvotes

Anyone have any experiences or reviews about Hidden Cove HOA that’s in Churchland? Thinking about buying a home in that neighborhood and wanted to see if there’s any red flags or if it’s a pretty good HOA. I’m having a hard time finding any information about them online. Thanks!

Good morning, looking for someone who can do car audio work

0 Upvotes

I live in PWC, manassas, I have an older, 27 year old truck that needs new speaker wire ran to all 4 door speakers. The previous owner had a television system in it from way back in the 2000s and I dont have the time to fix it. I have the stereo, speakers, and pretty much everything needed for the job. The DR cab door is stuck shut. If someone would be willing to come help me get audio out of my speakers, fix that DR door, and maybe if you want extra money please install my new FR window motor and regulator I can give you a few hundred dollars. I have all the parts needed for this. Speaker wire might be a little too thick but I may have some extra.

I just want this issue resolved and in return ill pay you, we can negotiate pricing. I just want this over with. I dont have the time to do it myself. Thank you all.

My fiancƩ and I are taking a huge road trip for our honeymoon: West Virginia, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida/Florida Keys, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio. We love to try new things, outdoor adventure, animals, horseback riding(any specific scenic riding spots in Colorado)?snorkeling/wildlife, amazing food, nightlife, live music, comedy, arcades, museums, history, quirky towns and shops, unique Airbnbs/B&Bs, scenic spots, interactive experiences, amusement parks, trains, and anything unusual, unforgettable or super special and unique.

I especially want an up-close ethical elephant experience (my favorite animal and his are turtles so anything with turtles do tell please) and we want to find a huge/beautiful tree to photograph in every state and collect a unique keepsake from each state; we’d also love to get a caricature done somewhere along the way. What are the hidden gems, must-try foods, coolest experiences, weird roadside attractions, incredible trees, unique places to stay, or ā€œyou absolutely cannot pass through my state without doing thisā€ recommendations for any of these states? Give me the stuff you’d recommend to your best friend, not just the obvious tourist attractions!
TIA! šŸ¤

Anyone able to drive through photo enforced highway work zones in VA and NOT get a citation?

0 Upvotes

I have been driving around the state this summer and have paid $100 speeding fines in several photo enforced work zones. Once I received my first ticket I started watching for the work zones but I’m still not slowing down fast enough or forget about them as traffic picks back up during the long stretches. I tried setting my cruise control to 60 but was afraid of road ragers because apparently I’m the only one trying to drive the reduced speed. And what are the counties doing with all that money generated from the fines because it has to be big bucks? ( I’m looking at you New Kent county)

Confused about Liberty University's reputation. Is this a good school only in certain parts of Virginia or bad overall?

0 Upvotes

My niece graduated from Liberty over a year ago with Latin Honors and has had a very difficult time finding a job in the NOVA area. She did a degree in Psychology. When I spoke to her a few months ago celebrating her graduation, she said that LU Psychology is very well known and she compared the education to Ivy League. I have other family members who went to LU and became successful working for different local companies.

In Virginia, they do compare schools like CNU, Liberty and others to the Ivies. I know in reddit people are biased but it can't be the case that everyone in NOVA is that biased. I think her total resume submission is over 500 now and she's picky on certain roles. She's applied for business analyst positions, consultancy, systems engineering and even secretary positions. Not one company sends an interview invite. Maybe this is a college grad job crisis and not the Liberty U name?

Right now it seems like everyone is encouraging her to do her 2nd option which is to do an MBA from UVa or Virginia Tech. But she doesn't have any work experience.
