Crash at 240/250, the one without a stoplight. That roundabout is much needed. #Crozet

New @crozettrailscrew.bsky.social trail just dropped, go walk on it. Line is approximate and has a very loose relationship to reality.

A quick look at the Crozet real Estate market.

#Crozet Trails Crew is on bsky! We've had really bad luck on our work day schedule this winter, but I'm confident we'll be able to finally build this trail Saturday!

Barnes Lumberyard moving forward? communityengagement.substack.com/p/week-ahead...

I don’t see “feeding and helping those who need food and help” as a D or R topic. Just help the People.

Pretty neat way to look at the #Albemarle County Budget. www.realcrozetva.com/2025/02/24/2...

Another must-read from Heather Cox Richardson. https://open.substack.com/pub/heathercoxrichardson/p/february-20-2025?r=2i6u9&utm_medium=ios

Group text with some college friends. One said he heard about the shooting in our town and was thinking of us. Another said he’d completely missed the story, and he’s only 90 minutes away We have too many guns and too many shootings and too many mental health issues.

Sorry. Can’t stop. Gotta appreciate and share the beauty we still have!

Post from the suspect’s sister. www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes...

I just read a Facebook post by the sister of the shooter at the Crozet Harris Teeter yesterday and, dear God, the guns, the mental health support and the laws where the two intersect need serious reform. Three families are shattered. the shooter’s family was begging for help for a year.

Shots fired at Harris Teeter in Crozet?!

Published February's note. Something for everyone - a bit about a homeowner's insurance addendum, offering clarity to the real estate transaction process, evolution of concessions, and maps. I love working with maps. open.substack.com/pub/realcent...

Why are people moving to Waynesboro and Augusta?

Power outages in Afton and in Ivy. Blinking in #CrozetVa @traviskoshko.bsky.social

1 - don't use 911 for non-emergency stuff. 2 - Also, Owensville Road is closed due to a downed tree. www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes...

Truth. "Once the stuff of car geeks' dreams, a Model 3 is now 'like driving a Beetle in 1939 Germany'"

Hey, Charlottesville-area folks: COVID wastewater levels here just hit "very high." Take appropriate precautions.

This month's Note will go out on Monday. So long that I've already sketched out the first three stories of March's note. Interested? JimsNote.com

Let's see how this goes. Either way, call your reps. 5calls.org

Cville/Albemarle friends - please call Rep. McGuire at 202-225-4711 today and ask him to oppose the Trump administration’s cuts of billions of dollars in NIH funding for life-saving biomedical research, including for pediatric camcer. democrats-appropriations.house.gov/news/press-r...

www.reddit.com/r/Charlottes... Fardowners resturaunt, political affiliation? “ I’d rather eat a wool sock filled with crickets than pay a member of the turd reich for anything.”

The cruelty and the hate are the point with these people.

Good heavens. I suppose it's time to buy a few extra external drives and figure out encryption on my own. The halcyon days of everything all the time from the cloud seem to be drawing to a close. U.K. orders Apple to let it spy on users’ encrypted accounts www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

Massive thunder. And lightning. In February? #crozet

Would’ve been great if this were housing.

A good morning #crozet

I think this note is going to be a long one. JimsNote.com I have much to add, and more to cut.
