More Feature Stories
Virginia felt layered—with story, with stillness, with something soft and steady in the land. I remember walking a quiet trail through the Blue Ridge and thinking, “This place doesn’t shout. It remembers.” Whether I was in a colonial town or standing beneath a canopy of turning leaves, there was always a sense of something older holding the moment.
What stayed with me were the shifts in texture: from ocean breeze to mountain fog, cobblestone to forest floor. I found grace in porch swings, vineyards, and roads that curved gently into the hills. Virginia offered both reflection and welcome. I left with a deeper sense of place—and a slower pace still lingering in my steps.
