MANASSAS, Va. — Woodbridge resident Annie Thomas has been reunited with her husband’s dog that disappeared after his death in 2010, thanks to the Manassas Animal Shelter.
Angel, a pug, was positively identified as Thomas’ dog based on an identification chip implanted in the dog, which the shelter was able to scan.
DUMFRIES, Va. — Last year, Grace Church donated 13,000 pounds of food to the community through its “bag of hope” food pantry.
They did it all from their home located in Dumfries since 2007. Inside their worship center, which once served as a commercial mailing and packaging center in the heart of the town, is a large sanctuary and stage lined with musical instruments, a community daycare center with classrooms, a café, and a TV production facility the church uses to spread the words of its pastor, Bishop Derek Grier.
The Prince William landfill has reopened to customers.

We’ve lived in our home for 24 years. We redesigned it, rearranged it, and built an addition on it. We moved the kitchen from a tiny hot room upstairs to a large room downstairs that we created out of the two lower level bedrooms. We extended and widened the driveway, built a garage, replaced the roof, and installed new windows and siding over that span of time.
We re-built our home a little by little, remodeling by removing walls and ceilings, installing new wiring, plumbing and insulation as we went. Every piece of woodwork is hand stained, as is every door. We learned to garden. We learned as we went sometimes out of necessity like when water seeped into the family room and I (not we!) dug down to the footers. I learned to parge on that project, wedged in a narrow trench between the driveway and the house.
