What’s the best winter beach around here? Maybe something kinda rocky where I can walk on the beach and enjoy a cold Atlantic Ocean view? Bonus if you can also recommend a seaside restaurant worth trying!

Looking for a romantic restaurant for my anniversary in February. Not too worried of cost but if I can save money that's great too.

1. 1 Stop Driving School for the 30 hours online class training 1.5 hours Parent/Child online class training. They are based in Hampton, you go there for the computer test it’s open on the weekends and you can just walk right in. $100 (As of Right Now)

3. They no longer do the judge court thing, after your done with the #2 in person driving and test you get a 6 month paper pervisional license and then DMV mails the proper license

Tomorrow we will be hosting our toy drive in Williamsburg near the Woodlands Conference Center from 2:00 to 6:00. Huzzah Restaurant by the Visitor's center is graciously donating 25% off of food for anybody that donates a toy for us to give to a child in Asheville, North Carolina.

They have recently reopened with an arcade and looks like a fun place to hang out. Come help us give a toy to a child for Christmas and check out the new arcade.

That’s it… that’s the post. Moved here a couple of years ago for work and I’m so grateful for this lovely community. Thanks for being home so quickly!

Visiting for the weekend and need to grab a bite tonight. Doesn’t anyone have a dinner recommendation? Thank you in advance and happy thanksgiving.

Been slacking on home maintenance the last few years but I'm trying to turn that around.

64W a little before the croaker exit the whole line of cars came to a dead stop. The car in front of me pulled into the shoulder so I wouldn’t rear end him and made enough space for me to not be hit either. The car behind me ate it tho.

friend is taking her kids to Williamsburg for thanksgiving. They love football, can anyone suggest a cozy place they could go that isn't their hotel room? Any places with fireplaces? Or couches/lounge atmosphere with tvs? any info appreciated, trying to help them have a happy thanksgiving

I’m a 40SYOM and, due to recent life changes, fairly new to making connections here in Williamsburg. I stay busy raising my teenage daughter, but when I’m not, I’d enjoy meeting like minded people to connect with, whether through shared interests or exploring the area.

I’m eager to learn and open to trying new things. Whether it’s drawing, history, DIY projects, or something tech related.

Figured this might be a good way to build some connections in the area.

Summary for X-Ray Attachment: Two months ago, my dog experienced severe coughing and wheezing. The top image shows the initial X-ray taken at that time. My vet prescribed a course of doxycycline and Temaril-P, which I administered as directed. The symptoms resolved after completing the treatment. However, about a month later (current) the symptoms returned. I brought my dog back for a recheck, and the updated X-ray (attached) showed that the condition had worsened. Despite this, the vet prescribed the same dosage of doxycycline and Temaril-P as before. I’m concerned about this approach, as the previous treatment didn’t seem to prevent the symptoms from returning, and the inflammation is now more severe.

What am I looking at in the images specifically? I see it is more cloudy but that's all I as a non vet can determine. Any insight in understanding would be so helpful

just moved to williamsburg (we’re a couple in our mid-twenties) and looking for fun friends to hang out and grab drinks with and have fun!! haven’t had the best luck feel free to DM💗💗

Does anyone know if the golden corral in Williamsburg does breakfeast every day. I see the store open at 8 and I assume (hope) they are serving breakfast. What times does it end? We plan to go on a weekday. I have called the store to ask but the line is always busy.

Getting a gift of afternoon tea for my mom's birthday, and I'm wondering whether I should book it at the Jefferson in RVA or at the Williamsburg Inn. Has anyone done both, and can you speak to the quality of each to help me decide? Thanks!

Every year around this time, a major national newspaper republishes an article about estrangement in America. Something like 25% of people either have an estranged family member, or are estranged from their family. Some people "deserve it" (because they are abusive or otherwise hard to get along with) and many, many others do not. Either way, you can feel very alone.

When I became estranged from the family I raised (due to actions of my abusive ex), I had to make my own traditions (or lose my mind). I began eating TG dinner at Golden Corral. It's crowded, but festive, and the noise and bustle reminds me of my large Italian family growing up (we used to be 30-40 people every year).

A friend and I are planning to arrive a half past noon on Thanksgiving Day. Others from the local reddit community who would like to join us are welcome. You can DM me (here on reddit) to be added to the list. If there are enough of us, I'll see if GC will take a reservation. If not, we can just wait in line. (Edit: plan to pay for your own dinner and tip nicely, please.)

And if you have friends and family to spend the holiday with, reach out to single friends and coworkers, invite them for the holiday! It's not the being alone that's bad, it's the feeing like no one cares. What's another plate at the table for you, is a lifesaver for someone else.

Bizarro‘s deli on fire?

Do you know of a family in need? I am not cooking for my family this year but will be making a Thanksgiving meal for two families who otherwise wouldn’t have sit down Thanksgiving meal. I have one family covered. If anyone knows a small family (3-5 folks, no more) that is very much in need (financially or other circumstances) and in the area, I can drop off a fully cooked meal late Weds or early AM Thursday. The family would need to have an oven and refrigerator to store and heat the food, so families in hotels this would probably not work well for.
Thank you and feel free to direct message me.

As many people in the Williamsburg Area, I have Cox for home internet. Also as many people in this area might know, there is no competition for home internet. Is there any alternative to get internet for my home that would allow me to not get kicked off important work meetings 2 or 3 times a day?

Like ideally if there was a way to get 5g internet reliably or something? I'm not super knowledgeable about these kind of things so any suggestions are appreciated.

Does anyone have a lead to get local gourmets? Looking for lions mane, oysters, stuff out of the norm I can’t seem to find at the local grocery stores.

Hi! Looking to find a local angel tree or something of the sort! My family and I would love to shop for any family in need however would prefer possibly an elderly couple/person to support during the holidays! Thanks!

Can anyone recommend someone who can hang exterior Christmas lights? We have a couple peaks to our home, that we just can’t do our self (mostly due to fear of heights 😂). It’s not a big job, nothing too big, just hang some lights. Not looking to spend our Christmas budget on lights, so looking for a reasonable price. Thanks! Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season!

Hi All,

Looking at some flight options for an upcoming trip to Morocco in the spring

1. Option 1: fly out of RIC, connect in Boston and then in Paris (with a short connection)

2. Option 2: Fly out of IAD, with a departure time of either 730 or 9pm on a Friday. Connect only in Lisbon or Casablanca (depending on flight chosen)

I'm kind of leaning towards driving up to IAD, but I haven't taken a flight from IAD yet, and am a bit concerned about dealing with Friday PM rush hour traffic to make my flights.

Thoughts/concerns/ideas??

Relatively new in town. Married male couple. Finding it difficult to meet others. Feel free to DM.

I am traveling to Williamsburg over Thanksgiving. Can anyone recommend a place to stay or places to stay away from? TIA
