One of the really awesome things about living in the United States is that we have a huge diversity of land and climates across the country. While we are enjoying strawberries and blueberries, other parts of the U.S. are reaping different harvests.
In the last month, I’ve taken a few trips to see people that live in different states. Naturally, I insisted on visiting their local Farmer’s Market. It’s a great way to get ideas for our market and to see what’s in season there.

MANASSAS, Va. — At a public meeting held this month about the proposed Bi-County Parkway that would link Prince William and Loudoun counties, Delegate Bob Marshall, R-Prince William, Manassas Park, said he’s not having very much luck hearing back from transportation officials in Richmond after posing questions about the roadway.
NOKESVILLE, Va. — The possibility of severe weather tomorrow is making an unwanted impact on graduation plans at Prince William County’s Patriot High School in Nokesville.
School Principal Michael E. Bishop in a letter told parents and students that Patriot staff is ready to implement a “plan B” for Thursday’s 7:30 p.m. graduation ceremony scheduled at the school’s football stadium. The contingency plan and would see the ceremony moved indoors to a gymnasium, prompting the issuance of tickets that determine who would be allowed to watch the ceremony from the gym and who watches it from inside the school on closed circuit television.

The summer is heating up, and so is construction on the 95 Express Lanes.
WOODBRIDGE, Va. — New steel is being erected as part of the 95 Express Lanes Project tomorrow night, and that means the southbound ramp from I-95 to U.S. 1 at Woodbridge will close to traffic.
The closure will start at midnight Thursday, June 13 and end at 5 a.m. Friday, June 14. Drivers needed to access U.S. 1 south will be detoured to Prince William Parkway where they will be able to follow signs and head east toward U.S. 1, said Virginia Megaprojects spokesman Steve Titunik.
