I was telling Indian_Dad earlier that despite all this happening, I still miss Blacksburg. Up until a year and a half ago, that's where I'd spent my entire adult life. I had been thinking about going back for a visit Memorial Day weekend next month.

I concur with everyone else, it's a fantastic town (despite a few classic town council faults - but what town doesn't have that [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] ), very well designed. It's the largest town in Virginia, but it sure doesn't feel like it.

I'll also add the the NRV in general is a great area.
The locals are fantasic folks, like you'd find here, and the non-locals become like locals.
