This stuff is great. You can’t make it up. Really. Here’s a recent report about old laws that still remain on the books in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Please don’t let this deter you from choosing our area for your next home… lawmakers are working on getting some of this stuff off the books for good.
My personal favorite is that a woman who wants to drive in Waynesboro is required to have a man waving a red flag walking in front of her car.
And no ham may claim to be a “Smithfield” ham unless it is smoked, aged, and processed within the town of Smithfield, VA.
Even today, the current prosecutor in Charlottesville has had to enforce the ‘No Spitting’ ordinance.
I doubt that the law making it illegal to have sexual relations “with the lights on” has been enforced lately.
And don’t try to wash your mule on the sidewalk in Culpeper!

Take time out to visit a Virginia State Park with your family. National Kids to Park Day was created to encourage families to visit their Federal, State or Local parks and promote environmental stewardship and healthy outdoor activities. Two state parks in our area, Lake Anna State Park and James River State Park will be celebrating National Kids To Park Day. James River in Gladstone, Virginia will be having a junior fishing expedition where kids under 16 do not need a license, they will even provide the worms and poles! Lake Anna in Spottsylvania will present Geocaching 101! For more information please visit the National Park Trust website.
