Cool thanks, not sure why I got down voted to hell. You mentioned crops being a concern and I was like, hey there's actually crops there in case you weren't aware, but acknowledged I wasn't familiar with how close was too close. I guess admitting you don't know something brings out the downvoters, I should have staunchly defended an opinion I had no knowledge of I guess lol.

If you're a Henrico resident, Henricopolis Soil & Water Conservation team does annual free sapling giveaways of Virginia-native flowering and fruit-bearing trees! All you have to do is show up, show them your ID, and pick out 3-5 saplings to bring home.

They usually hold this in late March or April. I haven't seen an announcement yet on their Facebook page, so I'm guessing this year's giveaway event will be announced soon.

Haven’t tried all of the pho places, but Pho Tien Phat II is fire and good quantity/monies ratio.

Thank you. I’m no longer in Richmond, but the number of cars that just chill at an intersection when I’m clearly not crossing makes me so uncomfortable as a pedestrian. And they won’t drive even when I wave them on, exasperated.

I don’t want to cross. I don’t trust any vehicle ever as a pedestrian. I wish cars would follow the law and be predictable rather than try to aggressively courteous to the point where it becomes an issue.

It's not the best but if you want to punish yourself go to Mekong and get the Super Bowl. I don't think there is a bigger pho in RVA.

The big thing Mekong has going for it over the (better) other places is that you can drink really good beer with your pho.

Could just go to Kohl’s or Macy’s or Target and try on (fashion jewelry) rings they have on display to get an idea of what size is most comfortable. However, I would guess if you have an especially large or small finger, those won’t help.
