Resources, Resources

I love the Internet. Over the past dozen years or so it has never ceased to entertain and inform. One of the greatest things about it is the breadth of information we can now access with such ease. Here are a couple of neat resources you might find interesting. First, here's the splash page for the Library of Virginia, which can point you in all sorts of directions. For example, did you know that current Virginia lodging figures are up 4% over last year? (from the VTC Tourism Dashboard Newsletter) You can check out photos from the Virginia Room at the 1939 World's Fair. Or read summaries of legislative petitions that were recorded in your county between 1776 and 1865. Okay, maybe you aren't a history buff. That doesn't mean you don't want to find your own buried treasure on the Internet. Here's the site for Virginia's Unclaimed Property. I hope you get a windfall! Just remember to share...
