Once the area that would become Warren County was divided between Shenandoah County and Frederick County, area residents attended the courthouse closest to them.
Front Royal residents appear to have used Winchester for the most part, and as a result became some of the earliest advocates for the creation of a new county to serve their needs.

About a year ago, I discovered a new Asian fusion restaurant. I'm not sure how many times I drove by and saw the signs before I ventured in. But I'm sure glad I did.

Suppose a distant relative who retired to Florida passed away and left you a family home that had been closed up for years. Since you already have your own home, it's an easy decision to just go ahead and sell it after a quick cleaning and a fresh coat of paint. Your next decision (and probably the worst one in your life!) is to hire a couple of teenagers in the neighborhood to clean it out. Remember that old expression about throwing the baby out with the bathwater?

I've been thinking about chocolate-covered cherries lately. The tiny treats have symbolized my childhood Christmas mornings, and my mother always had several boxes scattered out on the counter when we came downstairs. We never had to ask if we could have one.

The federal government is now faced with a small reduction in its rate of growth over the next 10 years. The "sequester" is nothing more than $880 billion in "on paper" reductions from projected spending in the next decade.

Ethan William Ellsworth of Phoenix may have been born with a malformation of veins in his brain, but his heart couldn't have been more perfect. Ethan's condition -- arteriovenous malformation -- was undetected until his brain suddenly hemorrhaged one night, sending the otherwise healthy and happy 71⁄2-year-old boy to the hospital for diagnosis and emergency surgery.

While reading about the possibility of using selected students as school bus drivers in Shenandoah County and reading some opposition to that idea, I thought of the "men and boys" in a Stephen E. Ambrose book and a particular lady I met last summer.
