Nellysford : Wintergreen-Stoney Creek : Newborn Reunion
As Wintergreen Fire & Rescue Chief Curtis Sheets told me this past Monday, “It’s not everyday, or even every year that you deliver a baby in the back of an ambulance.” But, that’s exactly what happened on April 23rd.

Good Night Marilyn, Rest In Peace My Friend
I met Marilyn Shifflett of Nellysford many years ago. I can’t tell you exactly when, but it’s been over 10 of the 20 years we’ve lived here permanently. I didn’t really get to know Marilyn and become closer to her until the looming threat of the Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP) became a very real threat to majestic mountains of Nelson County.
