Cville

On a recent medical excursion to UVA in Charlottesville, we opted for a less traditional hotel experience and chose to stay in a Flat in the hip Belmont neighborhood.  We chose the Belmont Flat from StayCharlottesville.com.  They curate special homes in and around Cville - from apartments to 10 bedroom estates.  The homes available on the website are hand-selected by Stay Charlottesville's team.  And most seem to emanate an air of Virginia - classic but modern and cool.  High five to the interior designers who "blessed" these homes.   

Winter Wonderland

One of the things I missed the most about West by God Virginia was enjoying all four seasons.  And, I have loved every single minute of this Winter!!!!  I believe there's nothing more stunning than a snowscape.  Cover something ugly in a bit of the white stuff, and its stunning.  But take something already stunning and then add a good 6 inches of the heavy white stuff and its awe inspiring!  Happily snowed in on the farm for the last 4 days and not even an itch of cabin fever.  This is definitely my happy place.  Riley likes the white stuff too - it's like having a fresh snow-cone every step you take.
