Interesting zoning story: Alexandria Virginia's waterfront is partly made of old ships. They were used to create the fill to build it up along the river. This has created a great interest there in discretionary zoning to ensure discovery and preservation of archeological artifacts https://www.alexandriava.gov/archaeology/four-18th-century-ships #AlexandriaVA #zoning #history #archeology #preservation

Four 18th Century Ships

Archaeologists exploring the Alexandria waterfront in 2015 and 2018, in advance of the ongoing redevelopment, discovered the remains of four vessels that were sunk on the Potomac mudflats in the latter part of the 18th-century.

Take a look around Virginia right now - things are PEACEFUL and CALM. But, here it looks like the administration is about to bring violence and conflict to our beloved state.

They are raging about Governor Spanberger's win (which they recently said she achieved "by cheating") and the decisive and positive moves she's made in her first days in the seat. And, so, here come the troops.

There is a 'Firehouse' Democratic Primary in Alexandria, VA on Tuesday, Jan 20th

A Jan. 20 firehouse Democratic primary to fill the 5th House District seat is set for Tuesday, Jan. 20, from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. in Alexandria. The seat is being vacated by state Del. Elizabeth Bennett-Parker (D-Alexandria), who is the Democratic nominee in the 39th Senate District seat being vacated by Sen. Adam Ebbin.

I am sure many are unaware of this unexpected primary.

I am working in support of long-time Alexandria criminal defense attorney Chris Leibig, who is not a political insider (his first run), is pro-union, and seeks the seat due to the degree to which democracy is under attack in our country. Learn more about Chris at his info page, but -- whoever you support -- if you are a District 5 Alexandria citizen, please show up and vote at the Charles Houston Recreation Center or the Charles E. Beatley, Jr. Central Library!
