New Homes in Loudoun County, Virginia, Buyer REBATE

Lenn - Nice article. I hope the photos are being uploaded to Localism as well?  Got to get those points!  Tony

Lenn...So many look on stonewalls and fences as mere decorative additions providing curb appeal!

Here in New hampshire they reflect history. Walking through a heavily wooded area and coming across a stone wall reminds of how heavily our State was once farmed! Stone walls are a reminder of how things were!

Thanks for a thought provoking post!

Tony.

I don't upload photos to Localism.

They dumped almost 400 photos that I had spend countless hours shooting and uploading.  I get points by working my butt off writing and Localism articles.  No photos. 

No more. 

Thanks for the comment and the thought, though.  I appreciate it.

What a beautiful part of the country.  My favorite "fences" are the stone walls- even though people are duplicating them as a decorative and gorgeous feature on newer homes, the originals are really something else (my sister has one surrounding part of her 120 year old house).

Joan.  Many are decorative around here too.  But, they are very much a part of the landscape.

Laurie.  I think it's beautiful too.  I find it very relaxing just driving through the undeveloped areas of Western Loudoun County. 

Thanks for commenting folks.

Lenn - I do believe you are ingenous - who else could write such a great localiam about fences???

I was on Localism, looking at pictures. I thought about adding pictures in the neighborhhod section, then remembered you had said yours were deleted. I am not sure I understand the logic behind that. When consumers read about a particular area or neighborhood, they will click on view pictures of "neighborhood".

We all know they don't always take time to read each posts. Pictures draw them in....then they may read the entire post to find out more.

Lenn - you've got me SO EXCITED about visiting DC & Virginia in less than a month.  I have family there to make a business trip a real treat!  I've never met anyone else who knew where ROUND HILL and HAMILTON were in Virginia!!  Now you have it on your maps...  I LOVE THIS!!!  I'm going to send this post to my cousin who atteded Loudon Valley High!!! 

I remember these fences as we drove through the area....ALMOST THERE NOW...ALMOST THERE!!!  It's so beautiful up there!!

I love the stone fences...if they could only talk.  Especially around here (there too)...how many soldiers climbed over them during the civil war.  Thanks for the fence post. (no pun intended)

Paula.  I would add some of my "fences" to Localism, but I don't understand their standards.  I believe that photos of fences and neighborhood homes are a lot more interesting than the local fast food place, but I'm not "the decider".   Dumping my photos was a clear rebuff.  I'm not going to "stake myself out" by posting any more photos.  It's a shame.  I shoot fabulous photos whereever I go. 

Susie.  Thanks for commenting.  Loudoun Valley High School is the top ranked high school in the county and it draws families to the area. 

We are going to get a new high school in Western Loudoun County, as soon as they can stop fighting over the location.  I just read last week where Lovettsville is under consideration.  What a wonderful benefit to our little communities that would be.

First:  a new high school;  then more home buyers, then more homes,  then maybe, just maybe, we could get a GROCERY STORE.

Bob.  Isn't that the truth.  "If only they could talk".

That's funny that you mention a grocery store.  Where we live...we've got several and some that have even closed because there was just too much competition to keep it profitable. 

It really is a beautiful sight, that stone wall. We can use Cornwall England as an example too; the stone walls there have been in place for eons and trees that are hundreds of years old grow up mixed in with the wall - sturdy as ever. Very cool Lenn.
