Yes, the rental car shortage is real.  Just tried booking a car for Hawaii in July....2 out 5 major car rental companies are completely booked.  The 2 that have vehicles, just have cars.  At $900+ for 1 week.  I have a family of 5 with 3 car seats.  It'll be interesting.

State agency recommends funding to help create new 117-acre park in Henry County

>>>Henry County is developing a 117-acre park adjacent to the Smith River Sports Complex that may include walking trails, wildlife observation areas, camping facilities and other recreational opportunities.

In late April, the Virginia Department of Conservation and Recreation recommended only three projects for matching grants through the federal Land and Water Conservation Fund and Local Assistance Program, and the new "Riverview Park" in Henry County made the list.

"This past winter, Henry County applied for funding," said Tim Pace, Henry County's director of engineering. "The application sought funding to purchase a 56-acre parcel of land, which sits adjacent to the Smith River Sports Complex, and another parcel, 60.8 acres, owned by a local foundation, will be donated to serve as a match to a $495,000 grant.

"Combined, the two properties will create 117 acres of land dedicated to recreational purposes."

The 56-acre Vipperman parcel sits adjacent to the Smith River Sports Complex and would be purchased with LWCF funding and reserved in perpetuity for increasing open space outdoor recreation opportunities.

That 60.8-acre parcel is owned by Martinsville NEWCO, and although the name of the local foundation that will donate the property has not been disclosed, the owner and The Harvest Foundation share the same post office box, No. 5183, for receiving mail.

One week ahead of departure, I called six rental places in Dallas before scoring an overpriced vehicle at Hertz.

Helpful young lady took my call 15 minutes later.
Yeah, I'll drop some coin there.

Looks like it's time for our backyard doe to go feed the youngster. Gotta name this one Dolly (Parton). I've never seen a doe that was so ... "blessed".

We haven't seen the little one yet, but last year she brought one down to chew on our flowers.
