I lived in Stafford County....a couple of miles from Aquia Harbor....for 13 years before moving to Tampa in 2000.  I didn't realize how much I missed that area until I read your blog.  I miss shopping at Potomac Mills and dining at Carlos O'Kelleys restaurant....no one makes chips and salsa, fried ice cream or margaritas like they do.  We spent many pleasurable weekends boating on Aquia Creek and the Potomac River.  Stafford County has great schools as well.

Judy Kincaid - Potomac Mills got it's own ramp from Route 95.  How's that for shopping power


Jennifer Fivelsdal - It's amazing what money will buy if you can go "2 counties removed from D.C."

Gena Riede - Thanks Gena.  I want to beef up buyer traffic to that area.  This can't hurt.  Let's see if Google picks it up.

Nick Sudano - Yep.  Water front is a "finite resource".

Jeff Dowler - Thanks Jeff.  This is a wonderful community. 

Patricia Aulson - Careful, Active Rain is addicting

Ann Cummings - Thanks Ann.  These Localism blogs are an integral part of my strategy these days.

Kaye Thomas - HA! !   This is not property on the Pacific Ocean front.  This is an inlet off the Potomac River about 150 miles from
the Atlantic Ocean. 

Thanks everyone for commenting.  I think this is the first LOCAL article that I've gotten featured. 
I'll be adding a map in a day or so.  Still working on it.
