[smilie=hiya.gif] Hiya Molly!
Interstate 95 is usually pretty heavy in the Fredericksburg area during the summer...no matter what time of the day or night.
Good luck [smilie=cheeky-grin.gif]

Please cross your fingers... Met the guy I'd support, he barely asked any questions, cause he got such a nice report from my interview last week. And I liked him. Salary was NOT as low as my friend guessed. Still less than what I was making, but I can make it work. :)

There's a really busy intersection on Highway 17, about 2 miles south of where I live. The first couple of years I lived here, there were quite a few accidents there even though there's a light and at sometime in the red light/green light cycle there was a left turn arrow for each of the 4 directions. They decided to build an overpass to help with traffic flow. After more than 3 years of construction the northbound side finally opened last month, the southbound side didn't open until yesterday. I have to make a left at that intersection to get to my dentist's office. With construction on the overpass finally complete, maybe it'll be easier to make that left turn when I go to the dentist tomorrow morning.
Do you know where you might be in proximity to a community with something called "The Market Common" ? Close church friends moved into a home near/in there yesterday.
The Market Common is pretty close, about 5 or 6 miles from me. It's a really nice area and they have a lot of events there. They have a St. Patrick's Day festival (they call it Irish Fest now), Oktoberfest, they just had an Italian festival last month, they do a big New Year's Eve thing, complete with dropping the ball at midnight. There are some good restaurants, a place called The Brass Tap that has about 50 beers on tap, a lot of little shops. It's bigger than it was when I moved here, there's been a lot of residential construction and they're still building more housing. The land it's built on used to be the old Myrtle Beach Air Force base, which closed sometime back in the '90s.
Wow!! thanks for the info. we are hoping they love it there (and that we can sometime accept their offer to visit -- only about $110 round trip from us to them)
I had an appointment to donate platelets at the Red Cross this afternoon and I took the long way home. From what could be considered the downtown area of The Market Common, where all the shops and restaurants are, it was 4.6 miles to the parking lot at my condo.
what I really mean . . . I wish you were here

Thanks, all. :D I *think* I'm the only one in consideration. The wife of one of Cameron's buddy's at work knew I was looking. (I like her, too). She works there. They hired someone for the position, and they didn't show up. The day after that, I did my online application, and HR contacted me the next day, and first interview the following day.

Linda, did you get any rain?

Soundslike you were on 81. Yes it does seem endless going thru Virginia. My son just graduated from VTech, so we have spent MANY hours on that road! But the mountains are so beautiful.

A little -- as in enough to make it more humid -- but a little is better than none.
