It's 20 minutes north of King's Dominion

Hunting Hawk originally was fantastic. Was one of the best new public courses in the country, then went downhill. Became more concerned with hosting corporate/association tournaments. Then they thought the land would be developed for houses, so they gave up on the golf course. And even though the development got shot down, they still just let the course go. It's a shame compared to what it was.

Public golf in Richmond is pretty terrible. It's either a shitty course for an affordable price, or super expensive for Independence. Providence is ok, but still not great. Best quality course for a reasonable price I've found is Viniterra in New Kent. You can get cheaper rates after like 2:00 as well.

Unfortunately most laws are made to regulate the few, not the majority. Such is life.

"Treat people like criminals and they will act like criminals"
I think you have the order of events backwards. Act like criminals (bring guns to school), get treated like criminals (metal detectors). They wouldn't be doing this if there weren't problems.

It seems the assumption is that I have been an employee at both stores (I have not). I had no insight into any of the questions asked.

Has Lee's always done fried pickles and I've just missed that?

Sidenote, has any restaurant in Richmond ever opened on time? It never takes just a few months to order and redesign everything, hire staff, and train them.

No idea, but any tips/strategies you used to accomplish this feat for the rest of us to learn?

Gotcha, I haven't really followed what happened or anything since then, just knew it burned. Even still, a few million could be better than what it would cost to rehab other schools.
