Wondering why I am this now?  Well, if you are anything like me you may have some treasures hidden away amongst all your posts.   If you have ever looked back through them you may find one here or there that you really wish you had posted.  This is one of mine.  In fact, I am sure I thought I had posted it.   After all, it gives many that wonder about life around Lake Anna an opportunity to see one of the activities from one of the many, many groups that make my life a happy one. Yes, it is well past the Christmas season but the happiness instilled in me from the times spent with friends lasts much longer and so I am posting this tribute to my fellow members of the Lake Anna Piecemakers. *********************************** Lake Anna Piecemakers began their holiday celebrations with thei...

It is very, very seldom that we have this much snow at Lake Anna so it seemed like the perfect time to go out to take some pictures.  As I had no plans of venturing very far from home most of the pictures are of home.   You will also get an idea of my neighborhood.  We live in the country so we do not really have a "neighborhood".  That's OK.  We have neighbors and that's what counts.   Our Home in the Woods at Lake Anna Closer Closest Up the driveway or down the driveway? Come on in! Across the road from home. Country Charm! Who's going where? Lake Anna's Big Foot There are so many great places around the lake, some neighborhoods and other areas that are called non-subdivision.  Whereever you are fortunate to have a home will become your favorite spot.  Buyers often ask me where the be...

One morning as I set out for Charlottesville, I passed Sturgeon's Creek Marina on the shores of Lake Anna.  As I was driving by I glanced at the water (I always do) and noticed the fog and a couple of fishermen setting off.  I turned around, pulled in, and saw that they were having a fishing tournament.  Quite a number of boats were lined up ready to go.  I took several shots and here is one of them. Can you see them back there? __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If you or someone you know is thinking of buying or selling property at or near Lake Anna, Virginia please contact Kathleen "Kate" Elim, REALTOR®, RE/MAX Hall of Fame.  Contact Kate at 540-226-1964 or by e-mail at lakeanna.kate@gmail.com. Be...

I'm in love with sunsets.  I cannot seem to get over the beauty of them.  Although I have tons of pictures of the sun going down, I still take more.  I delight in the fact that we see some truly gorgeous ones.  The fact that the setting sun, and the wonderful hues it creates in the sky, are often reflected in the water.  That doubles my pleasure. If you love sunsets perhaps we can find a place for you here at Lake Anna where you can feast your eyes on many spectacular ones.  I'll do all that I can to help you  __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ If you or someone you know is thinking of buying or selling property at or near Lake Anna, Virginia please contact Kathleen "Kate" Elim, REALTOR®, RE/MAX Hall...

Make time in the next week or so, if at all possible, to check out the colorful trees along the shores of Lake Anna.  One way you can do this is to join members of the Lake Anna Kayak Club at noon on Saturday, October 24th.  They will be leaving from High Point Marina where you might still be able to rent a kayak at Lake Anna Outfitters, the headquarters for the club. While it is free for club members, non-members only need to pay $6.00. Be sure to check to see if there are any kayaks available to rent and if there is any change in plans.  To join or for more information about the Lake Anna Kayak Club contact Chris McCotter at (540) 894-3540 or mcfish@gemlink.com.  Chris organized the club in May 2009.  It has an open membership policy and a $30.00 membership fee for couples while sing...

My Lake Anna Neighborhood...Make it Yours Too.  Yes, that's possible.  If you have been thinking about a move to the country and would also like to be near or on a lake, check out Lake Anna.  These are a few of the photos I took on my way home today.  They were taken within a few miles of my home and some within a few hundred feet.  This is what I see when I leave home.  I love it.  Even after seventeen years I never tire of see these sights.  No matter how often I drive these roads I always see some things for the first time and others I have enjoyed over and over again. I hope you enjoy these glimpses of my  neighborhood and get an idea of why I love it.    Each time I pass this barn and stable on Partlow Road I notice how well maintained they are. I liked the silouette affect. A driv...

For those of us within an easy commute of Lake Anna State Park it is wonderful to have the opportunity to visit and take part in a number of activities that are both fun and educational. (For those of you who live too far away for a day trip come back as I'll be writing a post soon about the great camping facilities at the park and the cabins you can rent.) If you have not done so as yet, take advantage of this great resource and plan to spend some time in this beautiful natural setting. Be sure to take a look to see which of these many offerings you would like to attend.  You may find it difficult to choose.  If that's the case, simply sign up for everything and have a great time.

Do you find that you are sometimes resenting these rainy, cloudy days?  March and April, here in the Lake Anna area, have been somewhat rainy.  I'm loving it. We have had a number of rainy, cloudy days and I'm delighted.  Someone complained to me about it today and I replied that we need every drop of rain we can get.  We had almost no snow this winter with the one and only bonafide snowfall happening on March 1. Living at a lake, a drought creates not only the usual problems with water shortage, it drops the water level and we end up with docks/boats way too visible.  It doesn't excite potential buyers much when they see "beaches" where there weren't any before.  And, believe me, it created angst among waterfront sellers and their REALTORS®. This has only happened a couple of times sin...

The Commonwealth of Virginia has a top-rated state park system.  Without a doubt it is one of the best in the country.  In 2001 the National Sporting Good Association's Sports Foundation Inc.  it the ppresented it with their presigious gold medal and state park award as the #1 state park system. However, the budget to support Virginia's state parks ranks low among the 50 states.  It is amazing what can be done with the help of volunteers.  Lake Anna State Park has a very active group of volunteers that supplement the tremendous job the park staff is doing.  In another post I will provide additional information on this group of volunteers called, Friends of Lake Anna State Park. If you live within a comfortable driving distance from Lake Anna you may find this is the perfect opportunity ...
