COMMUTING

  • EXPRESS BUS SERVICE to the PENTAGON and WASHINGTON, DC is available at the Festival Shopping at Old Bridge shopping center in Lake Ridge - less than 10 minutes
  • CARPOOLS usually meet at the VDOT Commuter Lot at the entrance to Lake Ridge - see OMNIMATCH for more specific details
  • SLUGGING (some erroneously call it hitching a ride which it is) is a result of the need to use HOV lanes on the I-95 as much as possible. Commuters form a line at a designated SLUG STOP in Lake Ridge - it is the VDOT Commuter at the Lake Ridge entrance. For example, a driver will pull up headed for the Pentagon, but needs one more passenger to qualify for HOV-3. The first person in line going to the Pentagon will join the others in the car and away they go. It's free commuting for the slugger and gives the driver availability to HOV lanes on I-95 - win win!!
  • RAILROAD The Virginia Railway Express WOODBRIDGE STATION with rail service to Springfield, Crystal City and Union Station in Washington, DC is approximately a 20 minute drive from The Glen in the morning rush hour.

Wordless Wednesday - Curb Appeal Has Nothing to Do With Age

Over the past 34 years as real estate brokers in Northern Virginia my husband and I have seen more than our fair share of cosmetically and materially  challenged homes. We have listed them for sellers and we have sold them to buyers. Of course, in each instance the list price and final price was considerably less than normal due to the condition of the property.

The 18th century home below is maintained by Prince William County and the 19th century church is maintained by the still existent congregation. Even so, there are private residences as old that are beautifully maintained.

We have a difficult time understanding why someone would allow property to deteriorate as much as they do

Port Potomac Entrance Photos

Port Potomac is one of the new communities being developed along the Route 1 corridor between Dale Boulevard and Route 234. It features a very damatic entry boulevard and wide streets throughout the community. The quote below was taken form the developer's Port Potomac description.

" The entrance to a community tells you much about the quality of life to be found within. Port Potomac greets you with the classic elegance of formal brick structures and manicured green lawns. The white columns and red brick of the Community Center, framed by a unique water feature are a perfect setting for one of the finest community recreational facilities you can find in Prince William."

A Little TLC Goes A Long Way Whether It's Homes or Tractors

Over the past 34 years as a REALTOR® I have been in more homes and attended more home inspections than I care to recall.

Although I have no home inspection credentials I am comfortable considering myself an authority on the value of TLC in maximizing both the

  • appearance and
  • value of your home

About 15 years ago, for example, one of our clients made an offer on a home in the Mount Vernon area of Fairfax County. Due to the high water table it had a crawl space as opposed to a basement.

One of the crawl space screens had broken out years before and the crawl space had become home to a colony of black snakes, The other screened vents had been closed and the trapped moisture seriously damaged the floor joists to the degree they were structurally unsafe. I have no idea what it cost the seller to make the repairs, because my buying client "walked". I do know it cost a lot more than the cost of a replacement crawl space vent.


Consider the two antique Ford 8N tractors. One sits in a field rusting while the other was proudly on display at the Prince William County Fair. The only thing distinguishing the two is TLC

Rusted Ford N8 Tractor

 Well kept Ford tractor



If you give your home a little TLC it will reward you handsomely and make it much easier for me to sell it

Who's The Mayor Of Woodbridge VA?

Non Mayor of Woodbridge VA 

There is none!!!! Woodbridge, VA is neither an incorporated borough, township, town or city and does not have a mayor or council normally associated with an incorporated location.

WHY YOU ASK? Woodbridge is a geographic location in Prince William County. It's boundaries are determined by 3 ZIP codes - 22191, 22192 and 22193

Here in the Commonwealth of Virginia if you live in a county (that's the vast majority of us) all of your services are provided by the county. That includes schools, public safety, water and sewer, courts, libraries, hospitals etc. The elected officials of the county are Supervisors and one of those folks is the Chairman of the Board of Supervisors. The day-to-day business of managing county agencies falls to the County Executive who serves at the pleasure of the Board of Supervisors. This is also true of the police chief, fire chief, and school superintendent. The sheriff is elected as is the clerk of court. Therefore, you only pay one tax - your real estate tax. You do pay a water and sewer bill since that is a function of your personal usage. Woodbridge gets along quite nicely without a mayor.

Non City Hall in Woodbridge VAARE THERE TOWNS and CITIES IN VIRGINIA? You bet there are. They have mayors and town or city councils just like other states. They provide all of their own services and do not normally receive services from the surrounding counties. However, there are instances where smaller incorporated towns and cities purchase services from the surrounding county such as school and water and sewer service. You may have a seperate tax to defray the cost of these purchased services, but they are usually included in your municipal tax.

Quaint? Not really, we've been doing it as long as there's been a United States of America and we fly the flag proudly in Woodbridge even though we don't have a mayor.

Wordless Wednesday - What Purpose It Served Is Anybody's Guess - What's Yours?

Recently, I was taking photos of several antique pieces of farm equipment in Manassas VA. This "gem" was in the group. I may be a farmer's daughter who has seen my fair share of old farm equipment, but this one has me puzzled. If anyone could identify it I will sleep better :)

Speechless Sundays - "He Holds The Lantern

While His Mother Chops The Wood"

Famed yodeler Tex Morton recorded that country/western tune in the 1930's.

Fast forward to the Blizzard of 2010. The photo below reminds me of the message in that old tune. Yes, my husband was taking pictures while I shoveled snow during the "event". Incidentally, the grill you see in the picture was the only visible part of my car. An hour later that was covered as well.
