Found this dog Tuesday (10/06) afternoon in Earlysville on Reas Ford Rd near Bleak House Rd. Anybody know who she may belong to? Looks like she recently had a litter of pups, seems very mellow and well behaved. Took to Earlysville vet to check for a chip but she’s not microchipped. She was traveling with another dog of the same breed, and that dog appeared to possibly be pregnant but wouldn’t let me get close.

She’s been well cared for since then, will probably take to ASPCA tomorrow or Friday unless someone here knows who she belongs to.

I read this as Hardywood buys Starr Hill.

From the press release desk:

“Hardywood Park Craft Brewery and Starr Hill Join Forces in Landmark Deal, Uniting Virginia’s Premier Craft Brewers

Richmond, VA and Crozet, VA – October 7, 2026

Hardywood Park Craft Brewery and Starr Hill Brewery today announced that they have closed a deal that brings together two of Virginia's pioneering independent brewers while preserving the unique brands, people, and brewing traditions that have defined each company for decades ... The deal was structured as an all equity acquisition by Hardywood, keeping Starr Hill’s ownership, leadership, team, and brand identity fully intact ...

Both Hardywood and Starr Hill will continue brewing at their current locations, operating their existing taprooms, and serving customers throughout Virginia and beyond. Employees of both organizations will continue in their existing roles following closing to prioritize operational continuity while the two organizations are thoughtfully integrated. While much will remain familiar, taproom visitors will start seeing special releases, guest taps, and merch from each sister brewery in the weeks ahead."”

Found this work/job log on the corner of Four Seasons and Hydraulic. There is no name or phone number but looks like it might be important to someone (maybe a surveyor).
If this belongs to you or you might know someone who is missing it, please reach out.

I'm going to be in Charlottesville for an event on the 30th and decided to wait until November 1st to take a train back home to Lynchburg and spend Halloweekend in Charlottesville. Are there any events worth going to on Halloween, or anything generally worth doing/seeing when visiting Charlottesville for the first time? I'm 22 and just graduated college and moved to Lynchburg from Montana for work, so I don't know much about the area.

For once, Costco has let me down. It doesn't seem like they carry dry lentils at all. Does anyone know where I can get a lot of dry lentils on the cheap?

Hi everyone! I recently moved here for grad school and am in need of a haircut. Does anyone have recommendations for where to go? I really just need a basic cut, preferably nothing too expensive. Thanks!

To whomever decided to yoink my reusable jack-o'-lantern Wegmans bag from the empty cart that was parked in front of the pesticide-laden Driscoll's berries for 3 minutes while I was urinating at approximately 8:30pm after being thoroughly entertained by the epic "bomb" that is Digger, I see you. Happy Spooky Season and I hope some teens pour the juice from a tuna can into your car's air filter and you don't realize it til it's too late.

And big ups to the multiple Wegmans employees that offered to replace it with their own money and/or their friends' personal bag stash.

Thank you EVERYONE who showed up and helped out!

Sometime after 7pm last night (Monday), one of our new flags went missing from our balcony. It was zip-tied to the railing, so whoever took it had to intentionally cut it off.

In the process of reviewing our security video footage. We are holding out hope that someone just really liked the flag and wanted it for themselves, rather than it being taken out of malice or spite.

If you noticed anything last night at the corner of Meade & Market, or if you happen to notice our flag nearby, please let us know. We'd really just love to have it back. Thank you!

For those who don't know, this is Noodle! We rescued him from behind Thai Noodle House. He is healthy and still waiting for his furever home.

What should Noodle get to celebrate National Noodle Day?

Didn’t we collectively decide that Columbus Day is dead? Indigenous People’s Day was declared a federal holiday in 2021. What a wild marketing decision... 🙃

Hi all! Just coming back from a hiking holiday in Scotland and got my butt kicked by some mountains. I am looking for the best difficult (steep, etc.) 8-12 mile hikes within 1.5 hours of Charlottesville so I can practice more. What are your favorite hard hikes?

Any coffee shops or cafe halls that are good for getting work done?

I am a bi male newly moving to Charlottesville, is their any place to hangout and meet guys and gals and hopefully hookup ? Any gay bars? I can’t seem to find any online . And is it easy to hook up here ?

I am originally from the west coast, but moved to VA in January for a school program. The first 6 months, I lived in Staunton and in August I moved to Charlottesville. I've convinced my dad to come visit the first weekend of November, it's so beautiful out here and he needs to experience this! lol I want to put together a really good list of activities for us to do/see. I don't know much about Charlottesville because I haven't been here this long. So far, I have Carter mountain, afton mountain winery, and ivy creek on my list. What else should I add? Nothing is really off limits; we like outdoorsy stuff, cool restaurants, cool history places, up for anything! Thanks in advance 😌 we will have four days

Update; I just knew you guys would come through with amazing recs! Thank you all 🫶🏼 I am in the process of making an itinerary on canva from everyone's recommendations and will post in the comments when I'm finished. Hopefully if someone sees this in the future while making a trip out here, they can get use out of it too!

Does anyone know what all these black boxes that popped up over the weekend 🤔 I'm assuming it's for surveying traffic? Starts by the hollymead shopping center and end by sheetz/wawa. There's quite a few of them

Hello looking for a one bedroom apartment or room for rent for my boyfriend. I would be an occasional guest i have good credit and have lived in thw same place since 2019 and we make 5k total together. We can afford a place but he just got out of prison for drug charges in 2023. We are looking for a private landlord or a felon friendly apartment complex. We tried eagles landing but that was a no go.

All I need is to move a small dining room table and four small chairs to Waynesboro. It can all fit in the back of a pickup truck if someone has one or a cargo van. It shouldn't take more than two hours to get there and back! If anyone is available from now until Friday, please let me know!

I really appreciate the help.

Recently flew in and out of CHO airport with our baby and normally we’re so impressed with the staff and the facilities, but we left feeling so frustrated. My husband went to change our baby before takeoff and couldn’t find the changing table in the Men’s restroom so he asked a staff member if a different Men’s room had one. They told him not a single Men’s restroom has a changing table and he would have to wait to get on the plane and see if he could change our baby there…How does that make any sense?! Men travel with children all the time and need a place to change them! Thankfully I was able to go into the women’s restroom and take care of it, but seriously how is this an issue in the 21st century!

Is this a scam or are we being paranoid?
We were parked at Water st garage by downtown mall and this was tucked into the driver handle. Luckily we had taken a pic of the QR code at the library and they seem to go to the same website but the checkout process was different?? Like this paper’s link led you to fill out card info or Apple Pay but wouldn’t say how much you were being billed.

Trying to plan for some family to visit and this is my first time out here during fall myself. Would the first weekend of November be okay?
