    We met them at the Food Lion. Holley invited them to the cabin to wash clothes and sleep in a bed for the night. Their hike was derailed a bit by a Brown Recluse bite near Rockfish Gap. Ten days recovery time help them decide to hike to Harpers Ferry and jump north . they were on a six month honeymoon.

    I'm guessing that corner cabinet might sell quicker if you filled it up with LD's pies, cakes, cookies, jams.....:wink:

    Well the time has come. The house of Hitchens circa 1930 is passing into the hands of a nice couple and their two beautiful daughters on the fourth of September.

    It has been a good run but time to simplify. I hope to close the following day on a one bedroom condo a few blocks away.. Living close to ODU till the new digs are renovated a bit...

    Finishing up my work year , renovating , and preparing for BWDRCO 2014 is about all I can handle . I look forward to seeing old and meeting new friends this October.

    Cheers all.

    First night back in the apartments I grew up in. The first memories of where I am sitting at this very moment are the summer of 1972 with my mother sipping an ice cold Pepsi. Many a mild summer evening would be lazily passed on our front stoop. This is a calm I have missed for a long time. Almost feel mumma sitting next to me right now.

    Thanks Twig, i have a feeling She always is in these moments.

    Funny. Showered and brushed teeth. It didn't feel strange at all. It really feels natural. The only difference is the room I have set up camp was my mothers room when I was growing up. I am seriously considering turning No.1 Apt. Into a guest house for ADV inmates and a select few others traveling to Norfolk. If it will pay the same as the other rentals.

    30 min from the beach, 15min from a tides game and 50 ft from an ODU home football game.
    Not to mention the bloochdog reality tour of Norfolk.
