Got the Smoke Shack sampler, wife had the catfish basket, and we just sampled from both. You live in Farmville? Seems like a nice community.
Technically Hampden-Sydney, though I can use Farmville as the city for my mailing address and I still get the mail. Turn right at the stop light by Fishin Pig, instead of turning left into the Fishin Pig parking lot, and I am out that way.
It's a good place to be if you want something safe, small, inexpensive, and quiet. It's great if you like buying luxury furniture as a large bit of the downtown shops are luxury furniture stores. So downtown is pretty lame for me since I can't afford to drop a few thousand on a couch, for example.
Very little to do here, even less if you aren't the outdoorsman type. The damn school I work at redesigned their website and put a section of the site on things to do around here and the very first option was road trip [laughing]. That didn't go over well with admissions recruiters and the coaches. School has a problem with it being a suitcase school when football isn't home in the fall and you tell people the top option for stuff to do is to leave?
A lot of people who work around here will commute from the Lynchburg, Charlottesville, or Richmond areas. The type of place very few people would consider to be a desirable place to live. If I ever want to get married, chances are I'll have to leave.
Luckily I'm pretty content with just staying home watching TV and sports. Even them I can get pretty sick of being around here. Luckily I can normally to get back home to Lynchburg for one weekend a month. It's pretty freaking brutal here in the summer. I don't know how the hell someone can raise a damn kid here if they can afford to live elsewhere.
