Where is Beach, Virginia?
Is that part of "real Virginia"? Talked to a Tagged friend from there, who was on her way to go vote. She wasn't sure who to vote for. I suggested Warner, and the big O. She came back and said she had voted for Obama and Warner, and the lines weren't bad at all.

3. REAL Virginia? All of VA is real
Believe it or not we have sensible people in all regions. We happen to be a couple of them. :-)

5. If I were naming a town Beach, it would be near the ocean.
But Google maps and Mapquest put it far from the coast. Go figure. Google maps put it north of Fredericksburg and south of Manassas, right about at the western edge of Quantico. Mapquest puts it maybe 10 miles southwest of Richmond, along Beach Road. I gotta go with Mapquest on this one. I mean it's called Beach Road!

7. It was named wistfully, not factually.
